Maddron Bald Hike

Maddron Bald is on the Tennessee side of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.  It was moderate in difficulty and provided a good amount of shade.  We had a really good-sized group that day, including some folks from France.  I was also not only person under 40/50.  ;) There was a cabin shortly after we got onto the trail.  It had low ceilings and a short doorway (even for my 5'3'') self.  Some members hiked the whole route, some did part of it.  There were no difficult creek crossings.  Sometimes, hiking poles, hand holding and major strategizing are part of getting across.
