That’s a pretty cool site. I looked it up and it’s not a super long drive from my house. Definitely gonna put that on the list for spring adventures.

It's on a trail system that is a pretty easy hike with a couple great views. Make sure you continue the hike to the "Moon Ledge View" it's an amazing view. I believe you can see 3 states from it, Mass, NH and Vermont.

Also be careful, I was at the moon ledge this past summer, and walked right into two giant red ant mountains, probably a foot high and three feet wide

That's absolutely terrifying and potentially deadly.

I was there in October. Cool place with an interesting story.

Preplan any hiking, as the trails aren’t very well marked. Maybe take a picture of the map located at the parking lot.

Very good point, thank you. The woods are pretty dense there too.

There are lot's of picture if the staircase on Instagram. https://www.instagram.com/explore/locations/253311342/madame-sherris-forest/

A few old ones of people on the the stairs, and under the arches. Crazy to think about now that part of it has fallen.

Very nice! The first time I visited there, I actually wandered in from the Pisgah State Park side, over Bear and Daniels mountain. Didn't even realize there were connector trails all the way through until I came down and saw one of the signs. Never got to see the stairs intact like that unfortunately - they were already partially collapsed.
