So refreshing to get back on the trails, beautiful 🦋
Thanks so much Will and Dawn. Just beautiful
I'm glad to see you hiking again.
Beautiful river and water fall. Thanks for sharing
Beautiful locations! ❤ Thank you both for taking us along.
Next time ya'll ought to pack a picnic, take your suits, and make a day of it. 😊
Hugs 🤗 and God bless 🙏
Great idea!!
Thanks for another high quality, great video!
My rattlesnake story is from Arizona or Utah, we stopped somewhere, I don't remember, but we heard a ratttlesnake in a bush in the dessert. I wanted to see it so I threw rocks at it. Kids thought I was crazy trying to scare a rattlesnake out of hiding!
But closer to home, I live in a National Park and we have copperheads and copperheads in my yard all the time.
I finally bought a snake grabber and bucket to out one in, and I capture them and take them down to the creek far away from the house.
Whenever I hike the trails out back, we are always on the lookout for snakes. We've only had a bear once (that we know of) on our deck. Gotta love wildlife, the pluses and the minuses.
@@familyarthurs5922 oh my, what state do you live in?

Wow! Thank you for walking and filming the waterfalls, in such heat and humidity. Such beautiful country. Our favorite State.
Beautiful!
Great place and rafting it is fun , you gotta try it sometime and love the hike beautiful video thank you both
We will!
Nice to see the Yellow Jeep out there.
Cool !
I was in Elkmont 3 weeks ago! Camped for 3 days.
Y'all ever go out with Chris and Mindy anymore? Feels like we haven't seen them in forever!
Haven't seen them in almost a year. We are always ready for a clab.
Best to wear a thin cotton white t shirt o. A hot summer hike. ☀️
Great tip!
Thank you, Will and Dawn. I can only imagine what the humidity is like. We have high humidity here in Florida. You always take us places, that we might never see. Thanks again.
Love the hikes in the mountains. So awesome! Do you ever get to hike with William the Smoky Moutain Hiker anymore?
Just message him the other day to go with us on a hike
That humidity is a killer!
Oh yaayyy….the mountains but I was so hot along with y’all…but oh my goodness how beautiful …thank y’all for tolerating the heat for us!!😊💕
Glad you enjoyed it
Hey Will and Dawn it looks absolutely beautiful out there so calming so relaxing you two together equals happiness thank you once again for always sharing
Thanks so much
What a beautiful hike. The water looked so refreshing on a hot day. God Bless.
Can't imagine what the falls and trail looks like when the Rhododendrons are blooming... The rattlesnakes will birth below rocky outcrops in the terrain and sometimes seen in wood debris piles. Glad you didn't see any.
Enjoyed the video, pretty area of the National Park. Thanks for the tour.
Ready for a big hike in new territory for Linda and me. Love the parks.
Y'all sure do get your cardio in!! Too bad the swimming hole was so busy. Beautiful scenery! 😊😊
Yes, thank you
HI DAWN ! HI WILL ! THANK YOU FOR THE LOVELY PROMENADE ! 👋😃🕊
Beautiful! Love how it follows the river! 4 miles is a big hike. Always make sure you have your water bottles with you & maybe a little snack to refresh you. That's the Mom in me talking! And dress down! Cotton shirts will absorb the sweat! Sorry! My two cents!
Thanks
@@yankeeinthesouth 😀
Hey Dawn and will that look like fun thanks for taking me along on that beautiful hike 😊💖💯🥇
I miss the videos where you took your cooking items and cooked in the park. 😊
Hi Will and Dawn! I love seeing a new hiking video from y'all. This looks like a beautiful area to explore while visiting the smokies. Thanks for taking us along! 😊❤

Beautiful! ❤❤😊
I'm glad you 2 are alright. I was worried from all the flooding in the area. How is Dollywood doing? 😁
All good
One of my favorite hikes, and I would love to raft.
Everybody getting in those last minute vacations before school starts back. It is crowded everywhere you go right now. Hopefully it will calm down in a week or so. Thanks for the hike. Did you ever find the rattlesnake? 😳
Never seen the rattlesnake
Very nice view
Wow it’s so beautiful creeks and waterfalls love it. ❤❤❤
I not know that many nice places trails. Thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
Looks like so much fun!!!!
Oh how beautiful the waterfall is. You can feel the coolness of the water just looking at it! So awesome!
Good job you 2 on the hike.
Beautiful scenery watching this video and the sounds of the water is so relaxing wishing I was there. Thanks for another great video
Glad you enjoyed it
Beautiful hike❤
Beautiful waterfall, thank you for enduring the humility for us.
Ya'll this hike was treacherous! Thank you so much for bringing us along. The Falls are absolutely breathtaking. Like I said before I would never get to go on this hike so THANK YOU very much. Love you guys.🏞💞🌟 Have a wonderful night.
You both looked fresh to me. What a lovely hike. Thanks for sharing it with us.
great vdeo!
Oh thank you so very much. Needed to have a home get away with you. I can not travel anymore but am so thankful for being able to see the beautiful places you go thank you so very very much. God bless you guys for being so normal and kind.😊😊❤❤❤😊😊🎉
Love it when you guys do hikes. 😊oh no, rattlesnakes? No thanks. Sure looked like a great hike on a very hot day there. Thanks for taking us along.
Looks like fun guys. Awesome livestream lastnight. As always.
Thank you so much for taking us along. It is beautiful!!
Bless your hearts! We know it must have been really hot out there! But thank you so much for sharing beautiful Smoky Mountain scenery with us! Love those creeks and waterfalls! God is so good!
Absolutely beautiful!!!❤ Thank you for sharing. Will have to check it out in September. 😊
Hope you carry water when you do these hikes.
Yes, we always have water
I see no water or Gatorade with you on trail. You need to wear a cooling gaiter too and prepare for the heat and humidity.
I need to use a refillable water bottle myself. Good reminder
You guys are so cute with your matching shirts. Thank you for braving the heat and humidity to give us a new video. I appreciate you guys!
Your Hike reminds me of Hiking at Elkmont... just so beautiful, so glad you didn't see that rattlesnake...thanks for taking us along with you both...GOD BLESS
This rocky river (minus swimming holes) reminds me a lot of the Jones Gap State Park in S.C. If you visit the park, then check out Caesars Head State Park and the breathtaking "Pretty Place" Chapel.
Ty Will & Dawn! You are ALWAYS my go to for learning something new about the Smokies! Did not know about this place until your video! Butterflies, mountains, rivers! Bestill my heart with all of GOD's beautiful creation! The yellow flower was jewel weed. It's a creek loving flower. Sometimes orange in color. Medicinal too. Great for poison ivy or itchy rashes. Ty again! Ya'll rock! Blessings!
Looks like a great trail but to humid for me.
Nice hiking trail hope yoy guys go river rafting seemed like Dawn wanted to go.
Great video. 😊
Thank you! 😃
I came to Gatlinburg in 1994 and my girls and I hiked to Laurel Falls. The fog came down into the forest on our way up and we felt like we were walking in the clouds. It was AEA break, and we wanted to visit Cades Cove, but we never had the chance due to flooding and trees down across the road. Little Pigeon came out of its banks and flooded the downtown area. It looked pretty scary!!😊 Hiking the AT is on my bucket list! I've got high hopes!😂
Beautiful views. Have you guys ever used trekking poles? They make trail walking so much easier! Especially on rocky and uneven ground!
Will and Dawn, what a beautiful hike y'all took! Thank you for taking me along with y'all! Looks so beautiful and peaceful there and the falls are absolutely beautiful! Really enjoyed your video and I'm behind on watching because, my Mom's in the hospital. Glad y'all didn't come across that rattlesnake. Looking forward to watching you video from yesterday. Love y'all!❤
When people ask me if the humidity in south Louisiana is as bad as they've heard, I say: "It depends" . They ask "On what?" I respond "On how good you are at breathing water!"!!! 🤣🤣 Think about how bad it would have been if the temperature's higher, and the humidity is higher, and there's no breeze!! It's like a wet wall. Thank you for doing a hiking video. I know it's not the most flavored and viewed, but I sure love them. 👍
Thanks for taking us hiking. 😊
Take some pictures and make postcards. Some of the falls are out of this world
I often think Redbubble would be a good place for Will's photos. I buy quite a lot of stuff on there for myself and for gifts, besides post cards and greetings cards, and am always looking out for scenes such as Will photographs.
Oh wow please take care walking during these high humidity days. Enjoyed the hike to a part of the Smokes I've never been to. The falls were beautiful!!! God bless.
Wonderful to be back in the Mts and enjoying the streams and water!!! Love you both 💖💖💖
Whitewater rafting is so much fun.....a rush of excitement....
I just love you guys and glad to see you back in the Smokies after your recent adventures!
Thanks
Hey Will I heard that somehow DollyWood flooded. Is that true?
yes but everything is ok
Awesome, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Great video Will and Dawn ! That water looked so beautiful and refreshing . We love to hear you comment Dawn . You two do a great job showing us The Great Smoky Mountains!😊
Better to raft with contacts than glasses. People have lost glasses, cameras, coolers, wallets. The companies have lockers. Wear cheap sunglasses and old sneakers or water shoes. The conpanies take down your id info, so you dont need your wallet. I wouldn't even take a disposable camera. Some things are better remembered than photographed. Rafting and tubing included.
Great advice, I invited some friends to visit once and we took a raft company ride in my area and we overturned in some rapids and a friend lost a very expensive recorder. Best left out of the raft.
A few years ago when my family and I went WWR, I about had a panic attack on bus. The life vest was so tight and the seats on the bus were so close and I felt like I couldn't breathe. Ugh. I had to undo my life vest. They make you put them on before getting on the bus. The place we went to in Bryson City anyway.
Sorry to hear about your experience
@@yankeeinthesouth it's ok. 🥰 Once I unsnapped the life vest on bus I was ok. And rafting was awesome ❤️
My wife and daughter and I are in Gatlinburg til wed. I'd love for my daughter to meet you two. Her and I are huge fans
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Just be safe with the heat Will and Dawn
Beautiful
It was good to see you return to your roots. Love your hiking videos. I think you should do a rafting trip. My daughter is a raft guide on the Chattooga River she would love to take you down that river.
The Chatooga River was where the 4 star movie with Burt Reynold, Deliverance was filmed.
We just got back from Asheville,NC, we spent 2 nights there, went up to Chimney Rock, my profile picture is me with the valley behind, we love the Smokies, i too have a Samsung Galaxy, i love it.
