About Chattanooga, Tennessee
Location is everything, as they say, and
Chattanooga certainly is "located." The very southern Appalachians give over to the Cumberland Plateau, which makes
Chattanooga perfect for outdoor sports. Fishing, rock climbing, hunting, and so on are available here for the sports enthusiast. But, the big draw like a domestic version of Japan’s Mount Fuji – visible everywhere – is
Lookout
Mountain.
If the remaining
See
Rock
City barns all around the south don’t get you up that mountain, you’ll miss the brilliant combination of man-made and natural attractions there. Atop the mountain when the weather conditions are right, they say you can see seven states, including Kentucky and
Virginia. Is this true? I don’t know, but that’s their story and they stick to it. I guess there’s no reason to doubt them. Ride the cable car up that steep incline and see
Ruby
Falls, too.
The Civil War figures into the history of
Chattanooga, of course. There were three Battles of Chattanooga and one of
Lookout
Mountain. Bessie Smith, the seminal blues singer, was born here. One end of the Cumberland Trail is in
Chattanooga. You can decide whether it’s the beginning or the end. But, a killer achievement worth mentioning is that the town presided over the invention of the tow truck. Now, that’s somethin’. Before you leave, go to the International Towing and Recovery Hall of Fame and Museum.
