You are the kind of Yankees we like visiting the South. May your travels be blessed and may you remain in Gods grace. Hope you enjoyed it and hope you visit again often.

This video right here! I'm a Cherokee from the Oklahoma Reservation but I have family in Cherokee, NC and have visited them many many times, and I never knew about this road! I'm gonna make it a point to visit this year during the autumn and drive across this road. I bet the autumn cors are breathtaking through there. I also bet in June the river is gorgeous with all the hydrangea and other wild flowers Thank you so much for sharing! Again, I don't see how anyone can find anything about you all or your channel to hate on. They have to be jealous that you have a successful channel with decent monetization(which you all deserve).

@@yankeeinthesouth in the opening song montage, can you tell me where you all were at where Dawn gets pecked by the chicken when she is trying to get some "chik'n treets" out of the dispenser?

Several years ago we drove that road. We saw our first bear ever in the wild! It was a LONG ride home. Thanks for helping us relive that adventure 😊

I had my motorcycle on that back road July this year. Don’t know what the red flowers were ,but they were beautiful. I enjoyed every moment that I was there.

@savtraffic 3 года назад

My most favorite place in the world, wish I was there. Been there every year on summer vacation with my grandparents while they were able to take us, my little brother and me. Best memories of our lives. Hoping to visit again before we get too old to. Heaven must be like the Smokies, I can't imagine anything better.

She lived in the Balsams, schooled in a tiny K-12. In the early 60's we found each other. First glance is a fairy tale but it happened to us. We saw each other and we knew. 60 years married. What an amazing girl. We did drive that road once, just for fun. We also courted up there just for fun. We already knew from the first time we saw each other. It was already decided how we would be. I had to lay her to her rest later. If the Lord is willing I will see her again, soon.

@suemarie1969 3 года назад

My favorite road to go on in the smokies I've been on. I drove it in my Kia soul couple years ago.

@e13235 3 года назад

That answers my question. We are renting a car in Aug of 2021 and it will be a Kia Soul, so if you drove it we can also.

@digitalblues01 3 года назад

@@e13235 Great road and you will probably have it too yourself but it's not always open though so may be gated off. Have fun, can't wait to get back there myself.

@scottshrader5872 2 года назад

This is a very nice drive, but don't miss the one way signs. We did it starting in cherrokee by misteak. It wasn't very clear it was oneway going backwards. We enjoy the trip, other then getting nathing looks and trying to get around other cars and trying to find a place to turn around. We hope to go back soon, but going the correct way.

What a nice serene ride. Seems like you hit the areas at the right time after a rain when the water will be flowing over the mountains. That makes the drive that much more enjoyable when you can enjoy the little waterfalls and fast moving streams. Thanks for taking us along.
