Caught a warm spell in the middle of winter, arriving at the top of the mountain on clear dry roads. Selected a spot in the lot where there was a little cell service with which to plan the next steps of the journey. Seems much of WV is bereft of cell service. 2/3 Mbps up/down. Quiet place with the most beautiful views.

as previous people said it is very cool. this is actually the highest point of west virginia. there are plenty of parking spots front and back and a trail that leads to the backcountry. on the trail you can expect to find lots of dispersed camping so in vehicle or in tents on the trail that's a dual option. down the knob is the spruce know lake which is really beautiful (can do fishing ). there's also a NF campground after the same name just down from the knob near the lake
