75 miles in the smokies is a BIG loop. How much time do you have. You
mentioned spring break; does this mean a week? The best 75 mile hike I
know of in the GSMNP is the AT. From Fontana Dam to Davenport Gap is
70-75 Miles. (can be done N>S). The section can be hiked in a week to
10 days, depending on how many roses you smell. It will require a
shuttle, tho. I know of a man at Davenport Gap that will do it for
$100. Not a bad price for what you get. Would be even cheaper if you
had two cars, but, take twice the time shuttling.
Write back with any questions.
