A group of Scouts went to Roan Mountain over the weekend of April 25, 26 and 27, 2008. A group started at 19E near the Apple House Shelter. We spent the night about 3 miles up in Doll Flats. On Saturday we hiked across Big Hump, Little Hump and over to Carvers Gap. We spent Saturday night at the Roan Mountain Shelter (which is the highest Shelter on the AT). On Sunday we hiked up to Cloudland and had a great view from the deck up there. We hiked back down and picked up the cars at Carvers Gap and met the other group which had traversed the same area in the opposite direction. Our group spent most of Saturday hiking up and the other group spent most of the day going down. The Roan area is a really nice area and the views up on Big Hump and Cloudland are awesome. The total hiking for the weekend was about 20 miles. Most of the miles were done Saturday and everyone was pretty tired.
