I never can sleep well the first night. I think I got around 4 hours. The biggest problem was I couldn’t find my inflatable pillow (yes, it’s luxurious camping) and I had to make do without it. Good news! I found it just in time for tonight.
It’s interesting what you forget. I meant to bring a towel, wash cloth and soap for the campground. I stopped in Tifton, GA and found most of what I needed at the Walmart market and the rest at Fred’s Dollar Store. Didn’t know they were still around. Deep Creek has no shower. Oh well, at least I have it for the next time.
The welcome center on the outside of Bryson City is the nicest I’ve seen. It’s what they all should be. They had rhododendron and dogwood blooming in profusion all around the place with a very nice gift shop inside.
I took SR 28 into Bryson City. This is a very fun road to drive with twists, turns, “S” curves, and sheer drop offs all the way in to town. I put on the “Will the Circle Be Unbroken” album by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and cruised in with mountain music.

Crag Knox sent me a PDFs file of our back country pass dated 1976, so it seems it was 40 years ago I last hiked Deep Creek. The Feds may move slowly but the changes are enormous. It was a dirt road and a dirt parking lot 40 years ago. Bryson City was a one street town with one cafe. I can still taste the ham with red eye gravy and biscuits we had for breakfast.
Now, the campground is much expanded to include group camps, picnic area, bathrooms (nonexistent then) and a ranger cabin. All the roads are paved. It took me a while to find the trail head. Fortunately, they did not pave that.
The forecast tonight, tomorrow and Thursday is 57F with possibility of rain and thunderstorms all three days. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
No posts for the next two nights. Nonexistent signals.
