Great Smoky Mountains - Pt. 2

Hey y'all!

This is Bryant again, with another installment of "Great Smoky Mountains." The Smokies are a subrange of the Appalacian Mountains, and are located in western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee. This range is home to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the Qualla Boundary (Home of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, located in Jackson, Swain, Graham, Cherokee and Haywood counties, North Carolina), Gatlinburg, Tennesse, Sevierville, Tennessee and Dollywood, owned by singer Dolly Parton and the Herschend Family Entertainment Corporation.

This video -- that I hope that you'll watch, because it's a very good video, if I do say so myself -- is of the Great Smoky Mountains Expressway, which runs from I-40 near Canton, North Carolina to the Nantahala National Forest, in southwestern Swain County.

The YouTube video posted is of the Great Smoky Mountains Expressway between Sylva Road (U.S. 23/441) and exit 74 (U.S. 441 North - Gatlinburg/Great Smoky Mountains National Park/To Blue Ridge Parkway).

Great Smoky Mountains - Pt. 1

Hey y'all,

I know I haven't posted in awhile, save for my other post about the theft of Christmas paraphernalia from an East Point Chick-fil-A restaurant. In this post, you'll see me driving along Sylva Road (U.S. 23/64/64 Truck/441), from Franklin and Dillsboro. This is my first time driving through this terrain, in North Carolina. I have been to Gatlinburg, but that was back before I began roadgeeking and back before I was driving long distances, out of town.

U.S. 64 east of U.S. 23/441 cannot be accessed by large trucks, due to the terrain of the highway: it's a winding two-lane road towards Highlands.

There will be a few other videos posted from the Smokies and maybe a couple from the North Georgia Mountains. I already have one on published from the North Georgia Mountains. Gotta get the other one done.

Enjoy!
