Cumberland Gap - June 12-13, 2020

 Camping in Virginia, Hiking in VA, KY & TN

June 12 we drove the smaller roads to Virginia

June 12-13: Karen & I drove from Chattanooga to our camp in Cumberland Gap NP & hiked thru the Gap to Tri State Point where VA, KY & TN meet.




Our campsite in the Cumberland Gap National Park.




Our campsite in Cumband Gap National Park, about 1500 feet into Virginia from the Tennessee line.

Middlesboro, KY is in the valley beyond the plaque.









After camping two nights in Virginia and hiking through Virginia to the Gap, we added Virginia to our map.

This is a soothing video of one of several streams we crossed on our hike.
