My school has fall break coming up three weeks from this Friday and I would like to take a trip to the Smokies for about 3 days. It will either be me and another buddy or a few more people from a backpacking and hiking class I am taking.
I would love some suggestions on a good loop we could take. Or possibly not a loop if there is an available shuttle. It doesn't have to be on the AT. I am also considering Davenport Gap to possibly Max Patch or a little farther. That seems as though it would be a pain due to having to take 2 cars and driving the hour or so between starting and ending points.
Any ideas would be appreciated. 7-8 miles a day would probably be the max unless it is a lot of downhill. I anticipate going slow.
Thanks,
MTS
