After being thwarted on our Snake Mtn attempt, we made our way back into Tennessee and hikes a short 3+ mile section of the AT which I had not hiked on before. It was very different from our morning hike up Elk Knob. One of the main attractions to this section is a normally boring waterfall, which, due to recent rains, was roaring away today.
Occasionally, you are reminded how far you have hiked or how far you have to hike.
On the drive back we stopped at a hostel, The Station, for a beer. The Bearded Iris Homestyle they had on draft was outstanding. The hostel, having just opened this year, about 1/2 mile from the AT crossing on 19E is bound to be a popular place.
