Join us on September 12 at 9AM to hike up to the Pinnacle, at Pinnacle Park in Sylva. We will meet at the Fisher Creek Trailhead at 9AM.
This hike will lead us up in elevation roughly ~2000~ feet and the total trip is about ~ 6.2 ~ total and about ten energy miles, so eat your oats the morning of the hike.
This trail is rated difficult. We recommend this for those who have previous experience hiking, although anyone is encourage to try. Please remember that if you are not used to hiking, prepare yourself before.
WE will take frequent breaks for beginners, or if you are an advanced group, we can move as quickly as you'd like.
This hike, while not easy, has one of the best pay-offs in views that you will find in this area. The view is definitely worth the work.
