To celebrate the Friends’ 20th anniversary this year, each hike will honor an achievement or cause that the Friends organization has supported in Great Smoky Mountains National Park since its establishment in 1993.

The hike for next month will honor hemlock conservation:

Due to a bridge out on the Boogerman trail, Friends of the Smokies will be moving our November hike to a new location. We are finalizing the trail this week so I will be sure to get you new details as soon as possible.

Thanks for your help in sharing the information!
