All,
I am hiking from the Big Creek Campground down to Fontana Dam, starting March 30th. My questions:
1. General water availability should be excellent, but how about high stream crossings?
2. How is water availability generally uphill route from Big Creek to Laurel Gap? Should I pack extra for this long uphill climb?
3. Any new damage to the BMT in the Smokies from the storms this winter (I know about 441)?
Thanks,
PapaG
