This trip will hike the Smokies section of the BMT - 92 miles from Fontana Dam to Big Creek. It's beautiful, remote, rugged, and an incredibly rewarding trip for seasoned backpackers!

Government Shutdown Update:
We know a lot of folks have questions about how a government shutdown impacts your scheduled trips. We are continuing to operate within federal public lands during the shutdown (where our operations are allowed). We currently expect all of our trips to continue as scheduled. We will reach out to hikers individually if the shutdown will cause a change in their planned itinerary.

We'll share updates here as we receive new information.
