Trail work at Glassy Mountain risks near closure this week
Flat Rock area crews from Great Smoky Mountains National Park Friends Forever Trail Crew began one mile of Glassy Mountain Trail maintenance at Carl Sandburg Home National Historic Site. The section from five points to the summit closes Monday through Thursday until Nov 8, open weekends. Boardwalk repair on Memminger Trail keeps it open with caution. All other trails stay open. A $15,000 grant from the Perry N Rudnick Endowment Fund funds the project, with Carl Sandburg Home and Friends Forever Trail Crew partnering. The site is three miles south of Hendersonville on Little River Road, open daily 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. except Christmas.
