montanachrisHappy New Year  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Jan 1, 2007

What better way to bring in the New Year than to take a nice day hike. I remember really enjoying being able to hike without 'post-holing' through deep snow in Jan. I had moved to NC from MT just a couple months before this hike. The trail cruises through spruce/fir forest which reminded of MT. It's nice to have a little of bit of the old with the new!

rangermattFirst Smokies hike  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Oct 26, 2008

Good easy day hike - fall colors just barely still hanging on. Good one to do for my first time in the Smokies.

This was one of my first hikes in the Smokies. I have been hooked ever since.

LilBirdWhoa that's a long way down...  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Jan 27, 2007

The title gives my impression of where my hubby scrambled to. I wouldn't get on the main rock because of a dizzy spell. Gotta remember to NOT look down.

peakrat76AT from Newfound Gap  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Apr 15, 2008

A nice, wet, hike in the woods. First "climbing" trip east of the Mississippi. Six inches of wet, heavy snow fell the night before we climbed via the A.T. Headed north and ambled over the summit of Mt. Ambler, passed nearby Kephart, and over "Masa Knob" just before arriving at the Bunion. A fun day. Met several "Through Hikers" which was great.

YEMAT  Sucess!

It was great to hike this with my dad and it was much better than I expected. A great view and very little effort. Do I have to go back to Gatlinburg now?

johnmnicholsGreat hike  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Sep 23, 2005

This is a great dayhike along the AT from Newfound Gap. Also serves as a good trail run along this stretch of AT since there are no major sustained climbs or descents -- very runnable.

captainbuudaSmokies Classic  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Feb 18, 2007

This was a really great hike since it was my first real winter hike with snow and ice (growing up in FL gave me a fascination with snow and mountains). There were many portions of the trail that were like an ice luge. We had brought yacktrax, and even though they weren't as secure on the ice as the instep crampons we saw another hiker wearing, they got the job done-- nervously. The view was breathtaking as well.

Hiked up here in the snow with some good friends, one of whom suffered from hypothermia on the second day of the trip.

Crossed it while on the AT. I think my friend lost some custom photography equipment here ;)

Besides almost breaking my neck on the downslope trail from Ice Water Springs (ICE is the keyword), the slip 'n slide walking was worth the fantastic views from the Bunion.

It was a nice easy walk, beautiful views especially in the fall due to the leaves changing colors.
