Description

Bird Knob Trail starts near Emerald Pond just north of Bird Knob with a quick climb to the ridge line before a nice, rocky climb to the views along the Yellow Cliffs. After passing the overlooks, the trail heads down the ridge with big rock features toward Rt 211 and Trail #416 - Rt 211 Connector.
