Stony Man Mountain

[2] The mountain is co-located in Madison and Page counties and is easily accessed from Skyline Drive by hiking trails.

The shortest route to the summit is from the Skyland Resort and gains less than 400 vertical feet in about 1 kilometer.

On the upper slopes of Stony Man one can see a few red spruce and balsam fir trees which typically grow in more northerly latitudes.

The mountain is composed of ancient basalt which was metamorphosed into Greenstone through heat and pressure.
