Other route options could take us over the Cherohala Skyway then north.

anyway, food for thought, and post here if you have an interest. You can always follow along for the DT portion then head back to Fontana. At this point, there is no plan to stop for a bite to eat, or take photos along the route, so fill up at the BBQ and mount your gopro before hand.

There is one rule- don't follow too close to the driver ahead on DT- leave at least 3 seconds of gap. This is a challenging road with plenty of opportunity to crash if you are mental.
