Here we are yet again, climbing the state highpoints to raise money and awareness for Alzheimer's. This week comes from the top of Woodall Mountain,our 5th peak and the highest point in Mississippi. As you will see in the video, there is no actual climb involved. At a amazing elevation of 806', Woodall Mtn. is the 47th highest peak.
Should you ever decide to visit Mississippi's highest point, there are a few things that you should know. First, if you use a GPS to find the peak, be prepared to take some odd routes. I ended up driving on a two-track behind a welding shop for a while, then through a couple of parking lots? Second, it is pretty well marked once you get close and the trail up is about a 1/2 mile drive. Finally, the view is okay for just over 800', but don't go there expecting grand vista because you will be a little let down.
