NORSA-rific outing to the top of the Mountain State

Steven S and his dad have been trying to hit as many states' high points as they can. This July they took the opportunity to drive out to Monongahela National Forest to hike Spruce Knob. Steven S went backpacking in the same area in 2009 but had never been to the top of the knob. The main observation trail is a short one with a huge fire lookout and several overlooks. It is a nice highland area with boulder fields, meadows, and spruce trees, similar to parts of Dolly Sods. They also hiked for a bit on the adjacent Huckleberry Trail which had some nice campsites that might make for a nice adventure in the future...
