They say April showers bring May flowers, but Sunday appears to be clear for now, and who doesn’t like a quick summit hike to look over the blue ridge mountains. Hightop Peak Trail is 2.8 miles out and back with just under 1000 feet elevation gain (and loss). Let’s enjoy the views and snacks on what should be clear Sunday!
