Riansares Mountain
About
Riansares Mountain is a summit in Bald Eagle State Forest in central Pennsylvania, about 2.5 miles from the small town of Rote. September is one of the more comfortable months to visit, with typical highs around 74°F and lows near 49°F at a nearby weather station in Millheim. That station sits roughly 1,200 feet below the summit, so temperatures up high run cooler. The closest trail is Boiler Trail, just 0.4 mile away, with Winter Trail and Stamm Trail each a little over 2 miles out. Hall Mountain Group Campsite lies about 5.6 miles away for anyone planning an overnight in the area.
