The Chimney climb is short, but plenty steep. It is a hike the moderate hiker can make, and yet its precipitous slopes are a stiff challenge to the experienced hiker. A half mile of rough, but comparatively level hiking; another half mile of interesting steep climb—and then a half mile of challenging slow pulling and heaving—all thru interesting trail where vistas of LeConte Mountain are brought to you from time to time—and then the breath-taking view as one suddenly finds himself on the top of a knife-like ridge from a couple of feet to a score feet wide, and hardly room on the narrow top for a half-hundred hikers! The Great Smokies may offer more entrancing hikes; they do offer much longer ones, much harder ones, and over more varied territory, but for sheer beauty and thrill, few short hikes equal the Chimneys. When you tire of the gorge you look down into as you scramble over the top, turn to the North and take in old LeConte, Alum Cave Peaks, Mt. Mingus, Mt. Kephart, the Saw-Tooth Ridge and a score of lesser peaks which form the back-bone of this magnificent section—the very heart of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Leave Dixie System at 8 A. M.; lunch and canteen. Round trip hiking distance about 3 scant miles. Elevation 4500 feet. Leaders: CHAS. I. BARBER (6-1562) JAMES A. TRENT (3-6427) // December 10th - 11th INSTALLATION AT MOUNTAIN VIEW HOTEL HOTEL AND HIKE TO FIGHTIN' CREEK GAP, COVE MOUNTAIN. MT. HARRISON, HOLY RIDGE Here's something new! This year we are to install our officers in the Smokies, instead of at Knoxville. The banquet and square dance at the Mountain View Hotel, starting at 6:30, will afford a splendid opportunity to get acquainted with our new members. 58

In 1926, the Smoky Mountains Hiking Club began to print an annual handbook that outlined scheduled hikes for each month of the year, including winter. This 1932 handbook was collected by George Masa (1881-1933), a photographer active in the Appalachian Trail Club and in the movement to establish the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The Smoky Mountains Hiking Club was formed after a group of outdoor enthusiasts hiked up to Mount LeConte in October 1924. Enjoying the spectacular views, the group returned to establish a formal hiking club to sponsor regularly-scheduled hikes into the Great Smoky Mountains.
