We took a short drive from our campsite at Keowee-Toxaway State Park to the road up Sassafras Mountain, SC. We were looking for an easy hike, and the Foothills Trail up from Chimneytop Gap was perfect. After about 2.5 miles on a beautiful trail we arrived at the top. The summit marker stone is very nice, recently installed (2012), and invited a little monkeying around. There is also an excellent bench nearby.
