Hiking

On the reverse of this image is written, "Hiking in the rain at Hall's Cabin, between Siler's Bald and Thunderhead. Sunday, Aug. 14-32 The Poncho Parade, left to right: Chas. Gibson, Warner Hall, Carter Whittaker, Harvey Broome, Guy Frizzell, Chas. Cornforth, Walter Berry, Carlos Campbell - - Warner Hall 8-14-32." The photograph is included in the records of the Smoky Mountains Hiking Club which was formed after a group of outdoor enthusiasts hiked up to Mount LeConte in October 1924. The back of the picture is stamped “Jim Thompson Co.,” indicating it was probably printed by hiking club member James E. (Jim) Thompson (1880-1976), a professional photographer who played a major role in promoting a national park in the Southern Appalachians.
