As they were replacing the tube they heard a loud cougar cry and looked up across the road and not but 10ft off the road was a cougar looking at them. It stood up against the tree and growled again before walking off. They couldn't believe it! She said it was as big as me maybe bigger! She said the sound that it made was amazing (loud and deep). That would be the approximate area of Poplar Stomp Gap, Low Gap, Hog Pen Gap, Tesnatee Gap on the AT. Anyone else seen such a cat in that area around the AT? I'm so mad I missed it!
