<br>A.T. - Hughes Gap to Little Rock Knob, Sunday, April 27, 1:00 pm – 6:30 pm
AT: Hughes Gap to Little Rock Knob, Sunday August 26, 2012
<br>Leader: Mike Watts
Leader: Vic Hasler
<br>Rating: Easier 4.4 mile round trip hike with 825-ft elevation gain on excellent trail
This hike is along the Appalachian Trail through hardwood forest to great views at Little Rock Knob (elevation 4918′).  The round trip distance is 4.6 to 5 miles with 900’ rise (similar climb to Bays Mountain Firetower trail but over 3-4 times the distance).  Let’s leave promptly at 1pm from the parking lot below McDonalds in Colonial Heights for the hour (45-mile) drive.  Bring water, snack, comfortable footwear, rain gear, bug spray, and trekking poles.  Expected return is by 7pm depending on our hiking speed and desire to tarry at the overlook.  Please call/e-mail the hike leader for headcount to arrange transportation.
<br>This hike is along the Appalachian Trail through hardwood forest to great views at Little Rock Knob (elevation 4918′). The overlook into North Carolina is expansive. The improvements in this trail section have really made this hike much easier. We’ll leave Colonial Heights at 1:00 pm. Alternatively, you can meet us in Johnson City by 1:20 pm or at the Hughes Gap trailhead at 1:45 pm. Expected return is roughly 6-6:30 pm.
