King's Pinnacle is an impressive local monadnock in Gaston County south of Charlotte, North Carolina. It is one of the easternmost bits of what could be called the Appalachian Mountains in the southeast. The peak of the mountain is 1705 feet above sea level (according to the park system, but 1690 feet according to quad maps) with the mountain's base rising from about 900 feet. The relief is quite impressive, and the peak is surrounded by very high cliffs of quartzite stone.

This is an easy 7 mile lollipop route, which has about 700 feet of elevation gain. The route starts at about 7200' of elevation.

The Black Forest Regional Park is located in the Black Forest area of El Paso County, Colorado, northeast of the intersection of Shoup Road and Milam Road, continuing north east to the intersection of Vessey Road and Holmes Road. Access to the Regional Park is off of Milam Road and Vessey Road.
