Camp II is all smiles after swimming in Blue Hole on the Fiery Gizzard Trail in the South Cumberland State Park. "Various legends explain how the Fiery Gizzard Creek, and thereby the trail alongside it, might have gotten its name. One suggests that, while eating a turkey at his camp along the creek, Davy Crockett burned his tongue on a gizzard and spit it into the gorge. Another holds that an Indian chief threw a turkey gizzard into the fire to get the attention of Europeans at a peace conference."
