Hiking trails planned at Sassafras Mountain
The South Carolina DNR plans two new hiking trails at Pickens County’s Sassafras Mountain. Public input, comments and guidance are invited during a meeting at 10 o’clock Monday morning, February 8 at the Clemson DNR office at 311 Natural Resources Drive. One trail is to offer a view of Sassafras Falls on Abner Creek—about one-half mile below the summit of the mountain. A second trail would be constructed from the parking area near the top to the summit, about 200 feet higher in elevation.
