The highest point in Tennessee and on the whole Appalachian Trail, topped by a concrete spiral ramp from 1959 that everyone either loves or wants demolished. The spruce-fir forest around it is dying from an aphid introduced from Europe, so the view keeps opening up for the wrong reason.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
