About the Hike

Hike Description

Contact hike leader by email for reservation. Form carpools at the first meeting place and meet the leader at the second meeting place. This hike in the cool high elevations is perfect for a hot summer day. From FS 816 we will ascend Sam Knob (6040 ft.) with its 360-degree views, then hike through high meadows on the Flat Laurel and Little Sam Trails. We then return via the MST across FS 816 and up to the summit of Black Balsam (6214 ft.), then down to our cars.Topos: Sam Knob
