My father and I just moved to the Tennessee side of the Smokey Mountains from Connecticut. We really miss the snow! This past weekend we drove up to the Smokies in hopes to see some snow, but most of the roads were closed with less then a half inch accumulation! Does anyone have any suggestions as to the best place to access the higher elevations in an event like this? We are really only amateur hikers, but are willing to learn the skills to do more intensive hikes. Any input would be greatly appriciated!
