So yesterday my cousin was on her way home and decided that we should go hiking when she got back to Boone. Well she didn't get back until around 5:30... She wanted to go to snake mountain, which I had never even heard of but apparently it's the place with the tower/pole thing that people climb and take cool pictures on. So we put it in our GPS and it said it would take us almost 40 min to get there. So we're headed towards Todd (off of 421) and find out that this place is in a town called Meat Camp (creepy and the perfect place to get lost)! So our gps takes us to the elk knob state park and we just figure the snake mtn is a trail or something there since we didn't see any signs or anything. By this point we had missed a couple turns and its 6:30 and the trail closes at 7:40... So we start booking it up the mtn. We get to the top around 7 and take a few pics and find a map and realize that snake mtn is actually the mtn that's across from the one we're on. We felt like idiots but it's okay because the trail we hiked was pretty cool too! We made it down just in time (right at 7:40) and just in time to avoid the rain!
