Chattanooga Incline railroad, Jack Daniels Distillery, and Barrett manufacturer

It is hard to tell, but the track is 72.8% grade at its steepest point.  Cool ride down and up the mountain. 













 Looking at missionary ridge where a civil war battle was fought for Chattanooga








 Stopped by Jack Daniels.  Which is strangely located in a dry county!









 This is where they burn the wood to make the charcoal to filter the whiskey through










 Cave where the spring that supplies the water for the whiskey is.

 The original office that Jack built.




 They are the 1st registered distillery in the country.




 They have 82 barrel houses.  The whiskey ages 4-6 years.
 Stopped by Barrett manufacturing.  No tours or store, but cool to see.

 The low white building is a firing range to test their rifles (I believe)
