SEPTEMBER 3 ROAD PRONG TO INDIAN GAP AND OVER MT. MINGUS Hikes over the Indian Gap Trail have been so popular that one is again scheduled for this year. We are reminded that this trail is a road made during the Civil War by the Cherokee Indians, and follows the Road Prong all the way, crossing and recrossing several times.(Prong, to the mountaineers, means creek or stream of water.) The Park officials have planned a foot bridge over the river where it is now marked to go across to the Chimneys, and expect to have this bridge completed in the early summer. The Road Prong flows into the river at or very near this place. It is at this point that we park our cars on the highway. One can easily imagine himself in Indian country because on the Indian Gap Trail to Indian Gap he passes through the Indian Grave Flats and as he approaches the Gap he finds Tommy Hawk and Moccasin branches flowing into the Road Prong. (These last names were given these streams by the Smoky Park Nomenclature Committee. ) After reaching Indian Gap, we find a wonderful spring where we stop to eat. And after lunch those who wish can proceed over Mt. Mingus coming back into the Road Prong Trail near the beginning, and while this is but a little further there is quite a bit of climbing and rough going- Leave Dixie System 7 a. m. Bring food for one meal, canteen not necessary. Hiking distance approximately eight miles. Altitude 526b feet. Round trip drive about 120 miles. Leaders: META SCHWOEGL (2-2153) H. R. DUNCAN (3-7681) 52
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.
