Torne Mountain is the South-most 1K in the Wyanockie Plateau. It has many fine viewpoints, including the famous Stone Living Room. If you find the notebook at the Stone Living Room, be sure to sign in and leave a few thoughts.
Torne Mountain's neighbor, Osio Rock, is very much worth visiting while you're in the area.

Excellent loop trail in a figure eight pattern. The summit is easily taken in short time. The Stone Lounge is a cool bonus feature at the top. But the real adventure begins on the descent into the deep and winding valley, on the way to Osio Rock...
Quick 1.6 miles just to tag the Torne. The light snowfall made the rocks quite slick in spots.
