On the reverse of this image is written, "Cheoah Mountains as seen from Appalachian Trail between Cheoah Bald and Stekoah Gep. Wauchecha 'Bald' (just off the Appalachian Trail) is the sharp peak in the center. The eastern end of Yellow Creek Mountain are seen to the right of Wauchecha - a faint outline of the Smokies is seen in the background. -Dutch Roth 6-26-32." The photograph is in the records of the Smoky Mountains Hiking Club. The photographer, Albert Gordon "Dutch" Roth (1890-1974), was an employee of the Southern Railroad and an avid photographer. The club was formed after a group of outdoor enthusiasts hiked up to Mount LeConte in October 1924. Established in Knoxville, Tennessee, the first official club hike was led by Roth in December 1924.
