Siler Bald NC (outside smokies)

[Waterbuffalo]

I'm going up there next month for an overnighter is there anywhere near the top I can hang my Hammock?

[Lone Wolf]

sure. there's a treeline.

L wolf said it best, but... The AT does not go over the top. it goes over a small feild below the final sumit climb (if you can call it that) and there is some good forest near the AT at the edge of the feild. I camped there and got my first night alone on the AT.

Cool I like to be away from the shelter but I have a cousin who wants to see the view and I don't want to sleep on the ground.
