    @danamoody8733 Před 2 lety

    Back in the 90's we took one of the one way primitive roads in Coves Road. If it is the one you are on, boy has it improved. The one we did was just a pig trail. We always stayed in Townsend at the Tally Ho and ate at the little restaurant beside the motel. We always had the same waitress too, she would tell us about teaching her kids to drive on that pig trail. Thank ya.ll for showing this video. Cades Cove is one of my favorite places, can spend hours there.

    @destroyerj Před 2 lety +1

    That off-road area looks like the place where movies like, 'Pumpkin head', 'Wrong Turn' and 'Food of the Gods' were filmed. I was waiting for a gaggle of hillbillies to come running out of that treeline! LOL! Great video, BTW.

    My wife and I went on this 8-22. We have a 2015 Jeep Cherokee and I was nervous driving. Definitely some spots I had to go slow to navigate around holes and rocks. I was wishing we had a Jeep like yours. And then we were on the Tail of the Dragon! A stressful day for me!
