The Rocky Crag is a classic off-trail adventure including superb wilderness, abandoned manways, bear-ways, and enough knife-edge precipices to get your fill.  This excursion will include the Porters Creek Trail, the lower part of the Dry Sluice manway, Lester Prong, and a very steep climb up the side of the knife-edge of Rocky Crag. Rocky Crag, known by some as the "real" Charlies Bunion, is on the state-line divide near the AT.  After a short hike along the AT for a visit to the "tourist" Bunion, we will return by Middle Crag, hopefully taking a detour to explore the large hole in the side of the ridge.  the total hike, including Porters Creek Trail, is about 11 miles (3.5 miles off-trail).  Rated strenuous.  Previous off-trail experience required.
