I grew up in middle Tennessee, so I knew all about Gatlinburg before we even talked to them about redesigning the site. My family took many trips to the Smoky Mountains – camping, hiking, or wading through streams searching for the perfect “skipping” rock. In college, my friends and I took weekend trips to Gatlinburg, even sleeping in my Jeep once. Also, this one time, a black bear ran into the side of my car, shook it off, and ran back into the woods. True story.
