But wait, there's more cool stuff to do in the Great Smoky Mountains. Go for a hike on the CHoga Trail, and a great place to go to is Green Cove. This lake is so wonderful. A great panorama of picturesque Ammon Knob is available from Mission Lake, and hey, Anderson Branch is a perfect local stream. All the water falling down from the sky makes Mission Lake a wet location; of all the months in a year March is the one with the most rain; October is when it's the driest.
Good hiking is available along the Coosa Backcountry Trail. This lake is so wonderful. A pleasant visit to Ammon Bottom is a brilliant way to spend an afternoon, and camping at Creekside Rv Park is always a magnificent experience.
