Haven't visited Frozen Head, and am planning a quick overnight-though not for this week after checking the forecast, see below. The few trip reports I've read didn't have much detail.

So, looking like…in Bird Mountain Trail to North Bird Mountain Trail to Coffin Spring Trail, down whatever that is(?) to Panther Gap Rockhouse, to North Old Mac Trail over to Panther Branch Trail, up Emory Gap to waterfall, then back by the bottom half of Panther Branch Trail and maybe a mile of road walk back to parking area.
Looks like ~15 miles total(?).
Anything I'm missing there?
Preferences on campsite? Panther Gap Rockhouse(water?) or go down to Tub Spring?
While I'm ok with Weather.com's forecast for 0F at Wartburg, TN Wednesday night, the Wunderground one showing on Alltrails for Frozen Head says -14F.
More than I'm set up to handle gear-wise, so I'll stick with something closer this week, and sit on this one 'til it warms up some.
Thanks for any info.
Suggestions for a second night welcome, btw. That loop looks like it hits the hot spots, but I wouldn't want to miss any waterfalls! DeBord and Emory Gap Falls are the only ones I've seen listed…
