High Point

I mapped the highest point on the map today. How high is it, you ask? Twenty-nine three meter contours above the river. That's about 280 feet. Sounds like a lot, but it's not, since the climb is spread over 2.5 kilometers. The new park road circles around to the east and north of the high point. A very nice oak and hickory forest covers this hill, and it's dotted with bare rock and boulders.

And at it's foot, a very wet beech bottom:
