Ocoee River, Cherokee National Forest, Polk County, Tennessee
A live-action look around the summit, wind noise included...
Subaru's represent!!  One other car in the parking lot...not a common occurrence here...
The bullet-ridden parking lot trail map (apparently the locals are a bit violent)...I'd be following the so-called "Long Loop" with a side trip over the summit for a total of about 3-miles...
Thankful for one last romp in the snow, I'm now ready for spring!
Closing the loop...
Max Patch summit, 4,616 feet...
The Max Patch benchmark...
