    benton mackay parking

    hey guys, I was thinking about parking at thunder rock trailhead to hike the Benton MacKay south into the big frog/cohutta wilderness. is this a safe place to leave my car for 4 days? any other parking suggestions? thanks for the help!
    FYI: If you want to know what type a certain bear is, sneak up behind it and kick it. Then,
    run like crazy and climb up a tree. If the bear climbs the tree and eats you, it's a black
    bear. If the bear just pushes the tree over and eats you, it's a grizzly bear : )


    Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me, either, just leave me alone.

    You might check the BM Trail Association web site. Sometimes they have updates. If not there are lists of folks who take care of sections who might have advise for that area.
