Great Smoky Mountains Photo Album Part 6 – Hwy 73

As I have mentioned before, just the drive from one town to the next down Hwy 73 can be magnificent.  There are several places to pull off and take in the sites along the way.  Here are just a few of them.

Here is a photo of the boys sitting out on some rocks they climbed to in the middle of the river that runs along Hwy 73.

If you pull off to the rest area on Hwy 73, you can take a drive to a little school house that is by a very attractive creek.  The drive there is a bit tough and is basically one way – thank goodness there wasn’t too much traffic coming from the opposite direction!  Here, one of the twins walks out of the schoolhouse.

This waterfall doesn’t require any walking at all – just pull off the side of the road and start snapping photos!  You need to keep an eye out for it, though, because it is a bit hidden and will sneak up on you if you aren’t watching.

The Sinks can also be found on this road.  Again, all you need to do is pull over and check it out – no hiking required!
