Cherokee trail

[edit]

A well-worn Cherokee trail connected Hazel Creek to Cades Cove on the Tennessee side of the Smokies. The trail followed Shehan Branch, crossed the Pinnacle, and ascended Eagle Creek to Ekaneetlee Gap, a col just east of Gregory Bald at the crest, and descended into the cove. From Cades Cove, the trail proceeded to Tuckaleechee Cove and the Overhill settlements. Other less-used trails connected Hazel to Forney Creek on the other side of Welch Ridge to the east and the Tuckasegee River area around modern-day Bryson City.

Looking at USGS maps, I'm not sure what this is talking about. I don't see a ‘Shehan Branch’ on the map, and Eagle Creek doesn't lead to Ekaneetlee Gap. The route that would make sense on the map (using 'modern' names) would be:

  1. Up Sugar Fork (via Haw Gap Branch)
  2. Over Picken's Gap (between Jenkin's Ridge and the Pinnacle)
  3. Down Pinnacle Creek
    1. Either cross over Big Fork Ridge if you know how to find the gap, and head downstream on Eagle Creek
    2. Or go until Pinnacle Creek meets Eagle Creek and then head upstream
  4. Go up Ekaneetlee Creek to Ekaneetlee gap, which is about 4 miles east of Gregory Bald (along the trail)
