Video: Hike to Hen Wallow Falls

The Great Smoky Mountains Association published their latest Youtube video this week. This time the GSMA takes viewers along a hike to Hen Wallow Falls near the Cosby Campground.

Along for this hike is Steve Kemp, author of several books, and a writer and editor for Great Smoky Mountains Association.

The video explains how the nearly 100-foot Hen Wallow Falls received its name.

Another tidbit that I thought was interesting was learning that Sphagnum moss was used for diapers for infants, and as a last resort, bandages for wounds.

Here's the video:
