Flagpole Knob

"As others have mentioned, some areas are Corolla rated but there are a few spots that you will definitely scrape bottom if you don’t have higher clearance vehicle such has a truck. Went up with our F150 no problem and saw great views. Trails are a bit narrow for a full size truck but doable. May get some scratches though on the side. There were two spots you could pull off the trail to test your rig. One had a significant incline and the other was a wash pit. It was a fun day out there."

"Great, always a good time, always finding new places to off-road. Camped right off of the top of Flagpole, got a good rain the night we camped. Then literally woke up in a cloud. We were very high up and the ceiling had settled on top of the mountain prior to us waking up you could not see anything anywhere, visibility was a very short distance. It was the first time that I had ever been inside of a cloud, LOL and it was an amazing experience. Some of the trails are very stock vehicle friendly, as long as you have four wheel drive. Other trails that we take it makes it much easier to be lifted on 35s and have lockers. Definitely a sight to see in the state of Virginia."

"Done in a stock TRD off road 4Runner with highway tires. Aired down a little but very doable with a little clearance and 4x4. PLEASE PICK UP YOUR TRASH!"

"Recently hiked the Hone Quarry Ridge trail up to Flagpole Knob. Flagpole Knob has some great views. This location has been trashed. There is a lot of broken glass, beer cans, and garbage everywhere. Anyone that visits this location please take your trash with you."

"Used to go up there quite a bit. Now that it has become more popular, there is a lot of trash on the roads and at the knob. It's a fun trip up and down though. Not terribly challenging, but you can find some spots to test your 4wd. I have done Union, 85A and Dunkle on the bike. Amusing to see the reviews that say 4x4 is required. 1wd on street tires was fine in all but the muddy spots. Never needed 4wd in the Jeep, although the rear had a locker. Pic of the bike at the peak. One each of the bike and jeep on the way up."
