Re: Advice for multi-highpoint trip this fall ?

Sounds like a great family trip! It is certainly a doable plan with some breathing room for side trips. As Steve Gruhn had mentioned, visiting KY and VA together is a good option since they are so close to each other and one is a drive up. Make sure you send in your Waiver for access to Black Mountain. Also, check the North Carolina websites for current information. Mount Mitchell summit road is only accessible from the north until mid summer due to road repairs from the south. Also,the summit deck is still closed until construction is completed, hopefully mid-summer. Happy Trails and Safe Climbs!
