Butler Knob, Mountain summit in south central Pennsylvania, United States.
Butler Knob rises to 2,320 feet above sea level, featuring a weather-resistant quartzite formation at its peak within the Rothrock State Forest system.
The summit's geological structure originated during the Silurian period, forming part of the Tuscarora Formation that characterizes the Appalachian Mountain range.
The Standing Stone Trail leads hikers to Butler Knob's summit, connecting it to 31 other peaks along the extensive Great Eastern Trail network.
Access to the mountain requires navigation of an unpaved road, leading to a summit area that contains a closed fire tower and weather monitoring station.
From the mountain's scree slope, visitors observe surrounding landmarks including Big Mountain, Sideling Hill, Williamsburg Mountain, and Blue Knob.
