We did an auto tour today because it was supposed to rain. We decided to start from the Sugarlands Visitor Center in order to get directions. While there Ross picked up a map for a short nature hike next to the center that goes to Cataract Falls.
Not much of a falls, but a fun walk anyways.
After the visitor center we drove the old Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail where we saw a bear on the road right away. After taking some pictures, we stopped at the Ogle Place, an historic homestead/farm located along a trail that was the original Gatlinburg road.
Following the road we got to a high overlook at GPS elevation 3331 ft above sea level.
Continuing on the loop, we followed Roaring Fork River and stopped at a spot that wasn't overrun with tourists (like us) to take some pics.
That was the junket for this morning.
