starting at the gregory ridge trail, you meander along forge creek as it rises from it's headwaters, the trail gets steadily steeper, climbing for about 4-4.5 mi.to the top. on top is one of the best views in the smoky mountains, a 360 deg view, where sunsets and sunrises are the highlights of an already spectactular place. the campsite is on the other side at sheeppen gap, or #13. you can also hike up this side of gregory's bald, by taking a primitive road just right off of forge creek road on the way to gregory's ridge trail, this is a bit shorter, though still an uninspiring uphill battle with gravity, with it's best advantage being that you arrive at camp, rest, unload, set-up camp, eat , hike to the top, enjoy sunset, in morning repeat, enjoy sunrise, w,hot drink of choice.
