Cold Prong Pond Overlook, Milepost 299.0

Elevation: 3580'

This overlook doesn’t offer much of a long range vista, but there is a trailhead that makes for a short, easy hike to Cold Prong Pond. If you continue on the trail, it leads to the Tanawha Trail. The Tanawha Trail is a foot trail that connects Beacon Heights and Price Lake.
