"Ride the Cherohala - Dragon Loop with photo op at Bald River Falls and Lunch at Tellico Kats Deli. http://tellicokats.com/
PLEASE BE ADVISED: The side trip to Bald River Falls is being made for the primary purpose of a photo shoot. One MINI at a time in front of the falls. I will be attempting to position each MINI in the exact same spot so that I can then create a "morphing" animated GIF to share with everyone. This will require some patience, but I hope that the payoff will be worth it! (See sample photo on bottom of this page)
We will start our driver meeting at 8:45 a.m. and depart the Old Registration Building parking lot at 9:00 a.m. sharp. I will attempt to maintain a moderate pace on this drive. Please be aware that both the Cherohala and the Dragon present challenges for drivers, in different ways. If you are at all intimidated by the mountain roads, you may want to carefully consider your decision to participate in this drive.
We'll head out to Robbinsville to catch the Cherohala Skyway and stop for a photo op at Bald River Falls. From there, it's just a few more minutes to Tellico Kats Cafe for lunch by the river. After lunch we'll head back to Fontana via the Dragon."
