Pic(k) of the Week: Hiking summit's edge

Hiking summit's edge

In morning, two hike the summit of Arabia Mountain: DeKalb County, Georgia, USA. 20 October 2024.

Composed primarily of granite-gneiss migmatite rock, Arabia Mountain is a monadnock —"an isolated small mountain that rises abruptly from a gently sloping or virtually level surrounding plain." Its almost barren summit sits 955 feet (290 m) above sea level but rises only 172 feet (52 m) above the surrounding countryside of pine and hardwood woodlands.
