Laural Knob is a stunning granite cliff in Western North Carolina. At the base of the cliff is a grove of 200-year-old Dwarf White Oaks and Table Mountain Pines. Since the 1970s, climbers willing to trespass developed routes on unique water grooves, wave-like flares, and unusual quartzite bands. In 2005, the Carolina Climbers Coalition negotiated a deal to purchase Laurel Knob, and the surrounding forest and wetlands. Our grant brings CCC closer to their fundraising goal.
