Ascent of Spruce Knob on 2011-08-12| Date: | Friday, August 12, 2011 | | Ascent Type: | Successful Summit Attained | | Peak: | Spruce Knob | | Location: | USA-West Virginia | | Elevation: | 4861 ft / 1481 m |
Ascent Trip ReportFrom VA 28, I drove up 17 miles of mostly gravel road before I discovered there was a paved road on the other side (US 33).
The BM is at a corner of the summit tower. The Whispering Spruce Trail that encircles the summit has better views than the tower.
