It is possible since that trail is low in elevation. Of course it will be temperature dependent, as it is anywhere else. However, that being said, I have hiked nearly 500 miles in the Smokies and have never pulled a tick off me. I always wear long pants and boots, but I don't use deet or anything like that and I have been fine. Now...next time I hike I'll probably walk into a nest of ticks now that I've said something!
