Doing the section from Fontana to Clingman's Dome NB...got the reservation...
Now where to leave the car(s)....
Here are the options that I know about:
Two Car Option:
(a) one car at Cherokee and the other at Fontana,
That way,shuttle from Clingman's/Newfound Gap to Cherokee (this could be hitch or even use the cheep shuttle down - one runs between Gat. and Cherokee mulitple times a day) and then can pick up the other car on the way back...
One Car Option:
(a)leave the car at Fontana and then have to risk the shuttle down and all the way around to Fontana on MON...could make for a late night shuttle around...
(b) leave the car at Cherokee, then shuttle around to Fontana...still have to shuttle/hitch down from Clingman's Dome/Newfound Gap down to the car...
I'm thinking the two car approach seems to lesson the dependence on the shuttle person a bit...and could leave later on SAT...
What do folks suggest...Thanks for any insights...Who are the suggest shuttles for that neck of the woods...
