The High Peaks Trail Association hosted an open house at the old Green Knob fire tower a couple of weekends ago. It was a beautiful day, and a steady stream of people made the short hike up from the Parkway.
The tower is a cool, Erector Set kind of structure with a wooden platform and a small building on top.
The building has been completely restored.
And the views are hard to beat. Because it was thoroughly vandalized when it was open all the time, it's generally closed now (unless you have good ninja skills). When the opportunity presents itself, it's worth taking the time for the visit.
