1.2 mi N of Iron Mtn Gap to Roan High Knob Sheter
A short day planned today due to the longer than planned day yesterday and the longish steep climb to go up to the Roan High Knob Shelter. So the best idea we have had yet was to take a 0.6 mi side trail to the Greasy Fork Friendly Hostel for ice cream, honey buns and soda this morning. The trail there was nice since it was all downhill, but that did mean we had it all uphill on the way back to the AT. Connie, the owner, was super nice and the whole place was very clean and welcoming. We demolished a pint of Ben and Jerrys Peanut Brittle Ice Cream along with two honey buns and a coke while we were there. Not bad for a 930 am snack.
Other than that it was a pretty tough day ending in a big climb up to Roan High Knob. We are tenting here at over 6200 feet and watching the clouds swirl around our tent. A pretty neat view and experience.
Stop me as I'm passing by.
