  • || : - mm Copyright, Jim Thompson Co. Before the advent of the automobile, such roads as the one pictured here led to the valley at the foot of the mountains now contained in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The lure of the mountains brought visitors from nearby sections, who came to hunt, fish and visit with families whose ancestors for generations knew no other world than these hills. A state-maintained highway, part of the famous "Scenic Loop", leading to the foot of Mount LeConte via Mary- ville, Townsend, Gatlinburg and Sevierville, passes near the spot pictured above.
