Smoky Mountains: 48 mi. Mid Circuit loop
I read about a six day trip in the Nov 2012 edition of Backpacker Magazine entitled: Backpacker Magazine – November 2012
Great Smoky Mountains National Park: Mid-Smokies Circuit

String together the Appalachian, Benton MacKaye, and Mountains-to-Sea Trails for a 48-mile instant classic that hits the park's best views and backcountry campsites.

I was just wondering if anyone has done this? Or anything similar to this? Always nice to hear about others experiences and get advice or suggestions to improve the experience. I'm planning to do this in April of this year. Thanks!

Looks like a beauty, I remember the article.. make sure you check out the new backcountry camping fee policy. No one seems to know when it will actually go into effect..
