The GSMNP website is reporting that the parking area at the Curry Mountain trailhead on Little River Road has been closed for safety and resource protection purposes. Hikers should park in the nearby Metcalf Bottoms Picnic Area.
You may also want to note that bear warnings have been posted on the popular Clingmans Dome Trail and Laurel Falls Trail. A bear warning indicates that bears have been active in that area. For park information on what to do if you see a bear, please click here.
