Description
Moderate ability is needed. The trail is a 10 mile long 'C' from the road. It ascends gently on direction at the begining. It incorporates a section of the AT and an old section of the AT. Once at the top of the ridge you will enter an old farming area (kinda cool!) If you go passed the high voltage lines, you have gone to far. The decent trail is hard to locate, so keep an Eye on your map. Great views, and great places to pitch on the top. Have Fun!! Bring water!!!

Directions to Hike
81 north to exit 141? or so... RT 311... take it north about 15 miles or so until you find rt621... go about 8 mile and find AT crossing the road. Park and Hike!!!
