Description

Hikers (L to R) T. S. McKinney, [Mary] McKinney, Dutch Roth, and Hugh Hoss are near the top of the trail to Blanket Mountain. In the background is Cold Springs Knob, where Miry Ridge joins the state line. They are on a hike organized by the Smoky Mountains Hiking Club. The photographer, Carlos C. Campbell (1892-1978), was a founding member of the Smoky Mountain Hiking Club (est. 1924) and a charter member of the Great Smoky Mountains Conservation Association (est. 1923). Campbell was an avid hiker and often assisted Jim Thompson with his camera equipment. When Campbell won a folding camera in 1935, he began his own photography journey, taking thousands of photographs and jotting down information about each one in small notebooks. His granddaughter, Rebecca Campbell Arrants, donated this collection of photographs and notebooks from 1934 - 1940 to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
