      I had planned a three day backpacking trip around Mount Rogers for last weekend, but the weather had us compress our schedule into 2 days. Our route mostly used the AT, but also included the trails:

      Fairwood Valley Trail
      Mount Rogers Trail

      and the spur trails to the summit & Massie Gap.

      I’d recommend this route to anyone interested in spending more time exploring the area around the highpoint. I promised myself I’d be back one day after I first day hiked up Mount Rogers in 2001 (the year I started this hobby).

      Mount Rogers is now only the third high point I’ve repeated (IN and TN are the others).
