THE GREAT SMOKY MOUNTAINS NATIONAL PARK AND THE SMOKY MOUNTAINS HIKING CLUB If the states of North Carolina and Tennessee, certain farsighted citizens of those states and the trustees of the Laura Spelman Rockefeller Memorial had singled out the Smoky Mountains Hiking Club of less than tw.o hundred persons and said, "Here folks, we're giving you, in fee simple, about 427,000 acres of magnificent mountain land, to the value of $10,000,000. Take it and enjoy it forever. Moreover we will take care of it for you and take care of you when you are on it," such statement would have been not far from the truth. There is no group of persons anywhere, that will profit more from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park than the Smoky Mountains Hiking Club. We as a club have done all in our power to secure a National Park here; and we have learned to love these Mountains to such an extent that we have developed a sense of proprietorship that may, unless we are wary, cause us to view our relations with the National Park Service from a selfish and distorted perspective. The National Parks are land areas, representative of certain distinctive expressions of nature, assumed without purchase by the Federal Government and set apart and maintained in their natural state for the recreation and education of ALL citizens, FOREVER. There is often confusion between National Parks and National Forests. National Forests are usually purchased by the Federal government for the purpose of creating and maintaining a reserve of forest products to be used, ultimately, by the people, and for the social and recreational use of the people. 11
Object’s are ‘parent’ level descriptions to ‘children’ items, (e.g. a book with pages).

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 1933 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.
