Us locals regularly do Hump Mountain from Big Horse Creek off of 19E. There is a Forest Gate and Forest Road most of the way up. Only about a mile and half each way. Agreed that Hump is one of the best views in the Roan Highlands.
Congratulations on your PHD Zack! Really enjoyed this video. This is one of my favorite sections of the AT. The first time I did this we were going south on the AT also. A nasty thunderstorm rolled in just before I got to the top of Hump Mountain and I kneeled down on my Ridge Rest pad and bent over my pack for about 45 minutes to wait out the storm. My two friends were ahead of me and waited out the storm at Bradley Gap.
Congratulations on getting your PhD! I really enjoy your videos, and us them to plan trips. Keep the videos coming! But I would respectfully prefer that you stay away from profanity.
Congratulations on your degree! It was beautiful up there, I enjoy and appreciate your videos.
Thanks I'm glad you enjoy them
Congrats zach. I might try this I'm from bryson city. A little bit of a drive.
It's worth it if you haven't been to the Roan Highlands.
Many incredible memories over this stretch of trail.
Caught the mountain laurel on a good year (92); overwhelming just like the classic post cards

I prefer long hikes, plus I'm driving from long distance so might as well get my money's worth on foot.
Nice views - and pretty wildflowers! 👍👍
Thanks Jennifer
@@bigzach322 😊 Thanks for watching!

Thanks so much Bryan. I've never been caught out on a bald in a thunderstorm, seems like a scary experience I'd like to avoid.
Congrats, Dr. Robbins! Looked like a great celebration hike.
Yes it sure was, thanks!
Beer is bad for you Doctor 👎🏻
Oh no way, that's the first time I've ever heard that.

Thanks David. I'm sorry I try to keep my cursing to a minimum in my videos but sometimes I slip. Trust me it's a rare occasion on camera.
