Ascent of Devils Backbone Wilderness High Point on 2013-04-29| Others in Party: | Paul Barbercheck
| | Date: | Monday, April 29, 2013 | | Ascent Type: | Successful Summit Attained | | Motorized Transport to Trailhead: | Car | | Peak: | Devils Backbone Wilderness High Point | | Location: | USA-Missouri | | Elevation: | 1080 ft / 329 m |
Ascent Trip ReportOut for a 3 day traverse of the North Fork section of the Ozark Trail, decided to go to this highpoint, since it is only about a quarter mile off the main Ozark trail. There is no view or anything really special about this highpoint, other than that it is the highpoint. I can recommend a visit to Blue Spring, a little farther along the Ozark trail, as it is truly remarkable, and you will get a workout from the elevation gain/loss. |
