Thanks for your help on last post, I think we will be checking out Mt. Sterling.

We are also driving to Clingman's Dome one day via the Blue Ridge Parkway. I know it's like a hour and half drive and we need to get their early to avoid the crowds as much as we can. I was thinking we could do a hike on the way back to our campsite at Cataloochee. Any suggestions on something 5-8 miles long that would close to that route?

Thanks again!
