Metcalfe Bottoms in GSMNP

I go to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park fairly often. I don't remember ever turning into the picnic area of Metcalfe Bottoms.

I was in for a nice surprise, and have several post to share.

These four were taken across the water from the parking lot. The last 2 were from the same spot.

On another visit there, we saw two bears up in a tree!!!!! I need to find those pictures and send to you. You love the Smokies as much as I do!!!!
