Thanks. Wow, this is amazing. The video is averaging 1,000 views every 30-45 minutes.

On Yahoo.com or Yahoo News? I don't see it there, though I did yesterday.

Where'd you find it on the Yahoo site specifically? Just curious.

Thanks. I'm very glad to see that more people now know about the old Wonderland Club!

Are you sure it was Man Woman Wild? I just watched the entire Smoky Mountains episode (which they misspelled "Smokey" sadly) and there was no sign of any of the Wonderland/Elkmont stuff. Was it a...

Sure thing. One of my goals was to give people a way to experience some of the homes and grounds from anywhere in the world by watching the video. We're all so busy with our daily lives and it's nice...

Interesting. I have ordered the DVD on Amazon and will report back. It was only $5 or so.

Too many trees at the top to get a good view?

Interesting. Thanks for letting me know.

I have been to Hazel Creek Cascades, but I went the way from Clingman's Dome. Hardest hike back up I've ever experienced for sure. I will have to check out the hike from Fontana. It's longer to get...

Wow interesting. I think this place I was talking about had a different name, but I had never heard of Ghost Town. Sounds cool. I think the place I found is beyond restoring. You'd have to tear...

Thanks for the tip. Speaking of bushwacking (which I just looked up to be 100% sure it means what I think it means), I think the most bushwacking I did recently was in the same area of Tennessee. In...

Ah ok cool. Yeah, on my hike to Jake's Creek Falls I didn't see it until I was on my way back. It was almost dark out. The sun had gone. Only the blue haze of light was left. I saw the back of a...

Also, sorry to post two replies in a row but I thought it might be good to explain that I didn't include the cemetery or the more well known row of Elkmont homes as I didn't have video/photos that I...

Yes indeed. So many cool cabins in the area. I don't remember the name, but there's one on Jake's Creek Trail that you have to go down a hill, across a footbridge and up a path to reach. It's before...

Very cool link. Thanks. Yeah, I chose to enter the back way to lead up to the hotel annex. Makes for a better ending to the video. I saw that The Appalachian Club building looks great today. Too bad...

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm trying to get it out to as many Smoky Mountain hiking fans as I can. It's somewhat near the Jake's Creek trail, but hidden, so some people might not even know they passed...

Ah wow, so the house I explored right before the hotel annex was the servants quarters. Interesting.

@Bronk - Sure, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I haven't visited the old Sarver Hollow homestead, but I might check it out. Sounds cool.

I do believe that the Wonderland Hotel is on NPS property. I...

About a mile up an unnamed gravel road inside Great Smoky Mountains National Park is the back way into an abandoned neighborhood and hotel, some of which was originally constructed more than...

Cool, will you be passing Hazel Creek Cascades? It's probably one of the most untouched and peaceful places in the entire park, seeing as it's one of the farthest destinations from any parking lot.
