Anybody ever been to Hazel Creek, just off of Fontana Lake in the Smokies? I am tagging along with my broter-in-law and a friend the weekend of May 10. We are taking a boat to cross the lake to get to Hazel Creek. Any trails in this area? I hear the fishing is great. I get the feeling this will be more of a "base camp" type of trip with day hikes.
