They live on the balds primarily. Not sure there are any you can hunt.

Yeah I assume they live more on the Cumberland Plateau than other places in TN.

I believe I read somewhere that they like to live at elevations of 2500ft and higher..So I doubt there are many on the plateau and are restricted to the Smokies..
