Although I enjoyed Buzzard Rocks I can't really see them as a separate mountain. I wouldn't have guessed that anyone considered them that. AT nobo.

Peter LarkinsRoute: foggy drive  Sucess!
Date Climbed: May 11, 2006

Tried to do some geology recon around Grayson with my USGS boss, but the weather was miserable. Temps in the 40s, windy, rainy, and visibility under 100 feet. Reached the top and quickly returned to the valley.

I'd been meaning to see this peak for some time. I go to the nearby Grayson Highlands State Park every year, but for some reason had never found the time to scoot over to Whitetop, or hike over Mount Rogers to Whitetop. My wife was still feeling ill from a recent bout with a lung infection, but she wanted to visit that part of Virginia on our weekend off, so we took the forest service road to the summit and I hiked down while my wife drove.



Lots of open country, wide meadows just below the summit, with a nice spruce-fir forest at the top. That entire area from Grayson Highlands down to Damascus is just very pretty and very wild. I highly recommend it for a vacation destination.
