MARCH 26 WHITE ROCK VIA LOW GAP On previous trips we have climbed White Rock from the East and from the North. This time we will climb to Low Gap and make our approach from the West along the State line. In season, the trail from Low Gap would resemble those around Gregory Bald, for the state line here is a veritable nursery of flame azalea. There are beeches, chestnuts and other hardwoods, but few evergreens. White Rock is the eastern outpost of Old Smoky and changes little, for its crest is a jagged mane of naked rock, for the northern, eastern and southern abutments drop away sharply. To the north is the valley country toward Jefferson City and Newport, to the east is the gorge where the Appalachian Range bows to the Big Pigeon River. Beyond is Max Patch; one knob of a bulging, rounded ridge which continues to the French Broad. Deep in the valley is the glistening cylinder of the surge tank above the Waterville Power Plant. Across the ravines to the south, Mount Sterling bulks large; while to the west, in the same direction from which we came, but much farther, is the rounded cone which is Guyot. Some idea of the tremendous area contained in the Park may be gathered when it is realized that the Park extends on and on, roughly, six times the distance from White Rock to Guyot. Leave Dixie System at 7:00 a. m., bringing canteen and food for one meal. Drive to Newport and take Tennessee Highway 75 through Cosby. Continue about five miles from Cosby and take an unused road to right which can be travelled to W. M. Proffitt's home, about two miles from Low Gap. From Proffitt's to White Rock via Low Gap, 4.5 miles. ROund trip 9 miles. Leaders: TOM DsWINE (3-0681) CHESTER H. CRIDER (2-3617) 23
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.
