That’s so cool! I’ve always wanted to hike the AT! Well once you reach the Clingman’s Dome area of the AT, if you get the chance to come into Gatlinburg, you need to try Crockett’s Breakfast Camp. I’ve lived here
since I was 2, so I’m practically a native. Lmk if you have any questions!
If you ever get the chance you definitely need to go! It’s a lot different compared to the Rockies, but beautiful in a totally different way. Very busy and touristy but it can be worth it.
