Enjoying the National Park during your stay at River Adventure Lodge... Fishing!
Fish at River Adventure Lodge! Fishing is permitted year-round in the National Park and you are allowed to fish 30 minutes from sunrise to 30 minutes before sunset. Fishing is allowed in all 2,115 streams except Bear Creek at its junction with Fortney Creek and Lynn Camp Prong. In Tennessee, all residents and nonresidents from 13 years or older must possess a valid license to fish. You can buy a license online at this address: https://www4.wildlifelicense.com/tn/start.php
 There are additional limits to what fish and how many you are allowed to catch. This is to help protect the ecosystem of the Smokies. The following guidelines come from www.nps.gov: "Five (5) brook, rainbow or brown trout, smallmouth bass, or a combination of these, each day or in possession, regardless of whether they are fresh, stored in an ice chest, or otherwise preserved. The combined total must not exceed five fish. Twenty (20) rock bass may be kept in addition to the above limit. A person must stop fishing immediately after obtaining the limit." Lures and Rods Permitted. "Fishing is permitted only by the use of one hand-held rod. Only artificial flies or lures with a single hook may be used. Dropper flies may be used. Up to two flies on a leader. Use or possession of any form of fish bait or liquid scent other than artificial flies or lures on or along any park stream while in possession of fishing tackle is prohibited. Prohibited baits include, but are not limited to, minnows (live or preserved), worms, corn, cheese, bread, salmon eggs, pork rinds, liquid scents and natural baits found along streams. Use or possession of double, treble, or gang hooks is prohibited. Fishing tackle and equipment, including creels and fish in possession, are subject to inspection by authorized personnel."

 Skiing in Gatlinburg, Tennessee at Ober Gatlinburg.

The 120-passenger tram departs every 20 minutes reaching a top speed of 23 mph traveling a distance of 2.1 miles. The trip from the downtown station to the mountain top takes approximately 10 minutes. It's a trip you won't want to miss.
