Mine Bank Mountain is a 3488feet peak in the U.S. state of Virginia,[1] in the Saint Mary's Wilderness near the Blue Ridge Parkway.
The mountain was the site of the 2023 Virginia plane crash, which struck 300feet below the peak, killing all four on board.[2]
The mountain is named for nearby manganese-iron ore mines.[3]
Hikes up the mountain can be accomplished on the Mine Bank Trail, a 10mile loop, with a trailhead on the Blue Ridge Parkway (37.9114°N -84.202°W).[4]
