Bickle Knob, Mountain summit in Randolph County, United States
The Bickle Knob observation tower stands at an elevation of 834 meters, offering views across the Monongahela National Forest and surrounding mountain ranges.
The Civilian Conservation Corps constructed the wooden observation tower in 1933, marking a significant development in the recreational infrastructure of West Virginia.
The summit serves as a central point for outdoor enthusiasts who gather to experience the natural landscapes of the Appalachian Mountains in West Virginia.
Visitors can reach the observation tower through a brief walk from the parking area along Forest Road 91, with the best visibility during morning hours.
From the tower summit, observers can spot the Mount Storm smokestacks in Tucker County and the Shinnston smokestacks in Harrison County on clear days.
