You don’t know how much joy you bring to me. My husband and I usually go to Gatlinburg every year in September to celebrate our Anniversary and my birthday but this year he has a few surgeries happening. I play your videos at night when we can enjoy them together so thank you for taking us along on your trips.
Will & Dawn, what absolutely beautiful scenery and waterfalls! Hello Smoky Mountain Hiker! Looks like y'all enjoyed swimming. Really enjoyed your video.
Same, we just got back 4 days ago and I'm sooo upset I didn't know about this! Probably wouldn't have been as crowded as the other trails we did (labor day weekend 😆)
Thank you so much for bringing back wonderful memories of hiking in the Smoky Mtns. Been visiting since late 1950's. Not as able now to experience the trails. You made my day♥️♥️♥️
Yeah Smokie Mountain Hiker. I do enjoy you guys too but that was just a surprise. I really enjoy it when he comes with you. My favorite is Spear Finger Hike.
The swimming hole looks like a ‘Tom Sawyer’ event! Clear water, huge boulders, and if that wasn’t enough - a waterfall to make it absolute perfection. Ya’ know there is a Scripture that talks about God creating things for His good pleasure. There are many things that we humans have never seen, fish in the deepest sea, waterfalls hidden in the mountain but God knows they’re there and He takes pleasure in their existence. Cool, huh?,
Love your videos! Keep them coming! I will be visiting the smoky mountains next month and decided to add a lot of places to my list of places to visit from watching your videos! Thank you!
Midnight hole is stunning! I wish I could make that hike. I would love to swim in that. Absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing that. I really enjoyed it.
Very nice hike. Amazing Waterfall and equally amazing and refreshing swimming hole. Looks so good it makes you want to dive right through the screen. Thanks for the wonderful look at all of this.
Really enjoyed seeing Midnight Hole and Moose Creek Falls. The water was so clear. The swimming hole looked like a lot of fun. It reminded me of childhood memories of a swimming hole we went to in the summer up in the mountains of the panhandle of West Virginia. That mountain water was always so cold. You had to submerge yourself to get acclimated to the cold mountain water.
I've never heard of that hike!!! Definitely going to check it out next time we go up there, thanks for the video and sharing I cannot wait to go swimming!!! 💃💃🌲🌲🏞🏞🗻🗻
Will and Dawn, I was never much into hiking, but you have a way of capturing the magic of nature that makes me want to get out there. Thank you for the inspiration. I love how you pay attention to the "little things" along the path.
So we just got back from a week long vacation there and I am SO upset we missed this!! We did some of the other hikes I saw on your channel but I am legitimately sad I missed this one! It looks so beautiful and my kids would have loved it! I'm still binge watching though wishing I was still there 😆
I love these hiking videos. Since I can't hike much any more, you guys are showing me places I'll never get to see in person. Btw......the tiny yellow flowers you showed in the beginning of the hike are called "jewelweed". That stuff is blooming all over the park right now. Hummingbirds love it. Great video.......looking forward to your next hike! 😉
If your interested in learning about wildflowers your best bet would be to get a dichotomous key book specifically for the Smoky Mountains super easy to use you just need to learn leaf shapes, leaf orientations and thing like that
That was a great hike with all that beauty including the water falls and the cold swimming hole. That water sure was clear. Those kids jumping off the rocks reminded me of when I was in high school when we would go to the quarry to jump in from high and of course the rope swing. I’m not that brave anymore! Thanks for the fun!! Always fun with SMH and it was also nice to see the behind the scenes set up. Be safe!
A couple years back, my family and I drove to the Big Creek area and looked around but didn’t get a chance to do any hiking. Wish we would have though😔. Those spots you guys hiked to are absolutely beautiful😍 Your hiking videos are definitely helpful on knowing which ones to do in The Great Smoky Mountains. I enjoy watching y’all’s nature walk videos especially during my favorite time of the year🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁. It’s always nice seeing Smoky Mountain Hiker coming along on y’all’s adventures. Thanks for sharing💛
Oh man I remember going to Midnight Hole in July 2018 with little kids (4-10 yrs. old) and some 4 seniors. I don't recommend for either of those groups . And on top of it, it rained all the way up there. Tried to take a wagon and it broke halfway up there and had to haul everything by hand. It was a bit stressful, but we managed. Midnight Hole was so beautiful and the water was so clear. I recommend, but don't take baggage like us LOL.
Absolutely beautiful!! One of my favorite of your hiking videos! The underwater footage is awesome. Everything is still so green! Love that smokeymountain chicken!
Thank you for showing your equipment, and how you film your videos. I love how you take your time, and get different angles of everything. I have watched other bloggers, and they are not as thought out as your videos. Thank you for taking me along on your hikes.👍❤
Mouse Creek Falls was wonderful! Even tho the falls were on the other side of the river, they were just gorgeous. And the walk back to Midnight Hole was awesome, too. The little falls at the back was great. It was so clear. It’s amazing that the water can stay so clean. Even Will and Dawn got to swim in it. And saw a fish, too. It was really great to see all of the equipment that you take for videoing. Fantastic video. And great to see Smoky Mountain Hiker was along on the hike, too. One thing tho. I hear this quite a bit. Will, there is no such word as “tooking”. The word is “taken”. I’m going to have to call the word police if this continues, lol. Just kidding about the police. Take care.🙂😉
Thank you for showing from a distance picture shot at 16:08. this gave me a better view the size of the Water Hole. The close ups made it seem a lot smaller.

Midnight hole is gorgeous! That is on my bucket list for sure. Thank you so much for sharing this.
Y'all make the Smokies so delightful! Thanks for the great hike and cool dip😁
I enjoyed watching the video of Mouse Creek Falls & Midnight Hole!
You don’t know how much joy you bring to me. My husband and I usually go to Gatlinburg every year in September to celebrate our Anniversary and my birthday but this year he has a few surgeries happening. I play your videos at night when we can enjoy them together so thank you for taking us along on your trips.
Hope his surgery goes well 🙏
Will & Dawn, what absolutely beautiful scenery and waterfalls! Hello Smoky Mountain Hiker! Looks like y'all enjoyed swimming. Really enjoyed your video.
So many places like that swim that was not really appreciated until you get older and look back. Good to see the Hikester with ya. Good job.
FYI
There is an app to identify plants
Thanks for sharing, my friends! Have a great weekend! Greetings. LIKE
Absolutely gorgeous. Yhe water is so clear. Nothing in the world like the Smokies. Y'all have so much fun. It's like being there.

Same, we just got back 4 days ago and I'm sooo upset I didn't know about this! Probably wouldn't have been as crowded as the other trails we did (labor day weekend 😆)

Omg that water is so clear!! Its as clear as the beaches down here south Florida. It looks so fun. We will definitely have to go there.

Really enjoyed meeting you all Thursday at the meet up and smoky mountain hiker
It was nice meeting you ☺
Thank you for showing from a distance picture shot at 16:08. this gave me a better view the size of the Water Hole. The close ups made it seem a lot smaller.
Love the woods my friends
Loved this trip with you! The waterfall and swimming hole beautiful.
