Saturday 1/20/2007 Evening Presentations-Heartland Series

On this finale evening, presenting are Doug Mills and Bill Landry of the Heartland Series.  I would consider this the rough equivalent to Tennessee Crossroads here in middle Tennessee.

Interesting notes from Doug’s presentation:
Book on Mountaintop Removal: Lost Mountain by Eric Reese
Logging Company artifacts remain.  Don’t attempt to find this but here are the directions (take the Thorney Creek trail from Clingman’s Dome.  Look for an old logging road about  mile down.)
Freshwater jellyfish exist and appear in Fontana Lake

Bill Landry, the host presented a few clips, including one of him grabblin’ for catfish.  Bill also mentioned an action group called Save Chilhowee Mountain that is acting to stop development and protect the watershed into the Great Smoky Mountains National Park
