mackerel_sky Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 26 at the tn/nc is an ok spot. If you take 40 to maggie valley then head south on 19 towards Cherokee at Soco gap where you can get on the parkway that is a good spot. There is a nice sledding hill there that you can use.Thanks for the info! May ride up there Thursday afternoon and check out some snow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
