Black Mountain Rocks
These rocky outcrops are located along the Grassy Cove Segment of the Cumberland Trail along Black Mountain, just southeast of Crab Orchard, Tennessee.
The valley or cove floor is actually a limestone sink, with these huge boulders lining the tops of the surrounding mountains. You will find rugged sandstone, bejeweled with pure white quartzite pebbles, and a maze of convoluted, fluted corridors, strange, stack-stoned chimney rocks and pillars, unexpected windows and passageways winding in glorious confusion.
