Blue Knob, Mountain summit in Bedford County, United States.
Blue Knob reaches an elevation of 3,146 feet and stands as the highest point in Bedford County within the Allegheny Mountains range.
The United States Geological Survey measurements in 1921 revealed that Blue Knob was not the highest mountain in Pennsylvania, contrary to previous beliefs.
The mountain houses multiple ski trails across its northern slopes, providing winter recreational activities for residents of Pennsylvania and neighboring states.
Visitors can access the summit through Knob Road, which leads to facilities including ski lifts, hiking trails, and a mountain lodge.
The geological structure combines Devonian period siltstone and shale formations with Mississippian Burgoon Formation sandstone, creating distinct erosion patterns.
