Description

Angels Rest and Pearis Mountain is a pretty steep hike that’s a 6 mile round trip with ~1800 ft of elevation gain, but we’ll be in no rush so don’t worry if that sounds like a lot! There is a decent chance of rain or storms either in days leading up to or on the day of the hike, so I’ll keep everyone updated on whether or not it will still be happening later in the week. Be prepared for wet/muddy conditions though!


Location

30 mins west of campus, quite close


Driving Directions

Just put “angels rest via Appalachian trail” in your maps app


What You Should Bring

Bring water, snacks, lunch, and wear clothes and shoes you don’t mind getting muddy, and anything else you might want to bring.
