Smoky Mountains Hiking Club of Knoxville

This image showing of the lower part of Ramsey Cascades found along the trail from Greenbriar to Mount Guyot, 6.55 miles from Greenbriar, is included in the records of the Smoky Mountains Hiking Club. The photograph was taken by Albert Gordon "Dutch" Roth (1890-1974), an avid photographer and one of the founders of the club. The club 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.
