Description
AllTrails Link: https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/virginia/the-pinnacle-flat-top-mountain Relatively strenuous dayhike with a good amount of elevation gain. We'll meet on campus and carpool to the trailhead(about an hour and a half northeast of campus) where we'll group-up and start the hike. We'll plan on stopping at one or two points along the way to eat snacks or lunch and probably hang out at the top for a bit and enjoy the great views.
Location
About an hour and a half northeast of campus
