Mount Mitchell (North Carolina) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (474 words)
Mount Mitchell is the highest peak of the Appalachian Mountains and the highest peak in the eastern United States (and 2nd highest in all of eastern North America, Barbeau Peak is the highest).
The mountain was named after Elisha Mitchell, a professor at the University of North Carolina, who determined its height in 1835 and fell to his death at nearby Mitchell Falls in 1857, having returned to verify his earlier measurements.
The ascent of Mount Mitchell is now rather easy, since a road off the historic and scenic Blue Ridge Parkway runs nearby, and a 300-metre or 1000-foot trail leads through a conifer forest to the top.
