Gatlinburg Crawling Areas?

[ravencr]

Hey guys,

I was wondering if any of you have ever found any good spots to crawl in Gatlinburg, TN, by chance? We'll be up there this weekend and would like to do some crawling, if possible.

Try heading up 441 like you are going to NC. Bout 5 miles or so in there is a spot on the left side of the road you can park at. The bank isn't step on that side of the road and it's a great spot for scalers with some bigger boulders for comp rigs also. Try it out and see what ya think!

Cool...we'll let you know how it goes. I appreciate the help,

There are places along the river road between Gburg and Pigeon Forge. Find a pull of around a rocky section of river

Also theres a good place when you cross the bridge at the grande hotel. pull in the gravel-ish parking lot on the left and walk the trail to the river.

Elkmont campground (actually in Townsend)has some really fun spots when the water is low. We camp there a lot, my son and I could spend all day there no prob.

Sweet...thanks for all the help guys. We're hoping we get some good time running them.

Try Greenbriar. I was up there yesterday and there are tons of places. I live fairly close to it so I'm up there all the time.

We stayed right near the Westgate Smoky Mountain Inn and just down towards pigeon forge we found a decent little spot on the river. It was fun...thanks for all the help guys,

Next time you're up hit up Greenbriar and under the Jake Thomas bridge in PF. I would think Mynatt park in downtown gatlinburg would be good too.
