I am planning a solo loop hike from Fontana Dam to Clingmans Dome. I was planning to take the Lakeshore trail, to the Forney Creek trail, to the the Forney Ridge trail to Clingmans. Going back on the AT to the Eagle Creek trail to the Lakeshore trail. Planning on a six day hike (About 75 miles total). Any thoughts on the Forney Creek trail and the Eagle Creek trail? Also any advise on the following campsites (#88, 74, 69, 96)? What is the water situation at Derrick Knob shelter? I planned this route to limit the reservations needed and not be in shelters the entire time. Thanks!
