Small site near parking area

This is a small clearing and firepit established near the trailhead at Mooney Gap. This would work in a pinch if you got to the site after dark and wanted to set up a site for the night. However, I would suggest continuing up the trail as there are many better options further along with more space and privacy from the road.
