Back in the 90's we took one of the one way primitive roads in Coves Road. If it is the one you are on, boy has it improved. The one we did was just a pig trail. We always stayed in Townsend at the Tally Ho and ate at the little restaurant beside the motel. We always had the same waitress too, she would tell us about teaching her kids to drive on that pig trail. Thank ya.ll for showing this video. Cades Cove is one of my favorite places, can spend hours there.
