Double Springs Mountain
About
Double Springs Mountain is a summit of 2,988 feet in the Pisgah Ranger District of the National Forests in North Carolina, about 2.3 miles from the town of Rosman. For comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Lake Toxaway show May highs around 73°F and September highs around 73°F, with October lows near 45°F. That station sits at a similar elevation to the summit, so its figures are a fair guide. The National Park Trail passes just 0.6 miles away. Catheys Creek, about 3.5 miles off, offers canoeing, and Cathey's Creek Crag, about 3.8 miles away, is a climbing area. Monte Vista Trail lies roughly 5.4 miles from the summit.
