Just under a mile in the sky, Whetstone Mountain reaches up to an elevation of 4,969 feet. There are open views from the summit, which is a worthwhile reward for climbing the steep forest path. The summit can be nabbed by taking a short spur trail off the main Whetstone Mountain Trail at the highest point along the ridge.
