  • 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 hikes into the Great Smoky Mountains. Established in Knoxville, Tennessee, the first official club hike was led by Dutch Roth in December 1924. This photograph, by club member Guy Frizzell, is of a vireo, taken between Gregory and Parson Bald in July 1930. The back of the photograph is stamped "McLean's Fadeless Prints Knoxville Tenn."
