A photo story

Britton Hill, Florida

I stood at the granite marker at Lakewood Park, Florida's high point, in February 2026. The stone reads Lakewood Park, Florida's Highest Point, Elevation 345 Ft, with an outline of the state cut into the top. A wooden bench sits behind it by a small tree, and I held my hand out toward the stone. It was mid afternoon, around 70, with a breeze around 8 miles an hour.

Britton Hill is about 345 feet, the lowest state high point in the country, in Lakewood Park near the Alabama line in Walton County. The marker is right there in the park, and I also took a clip of myself talking with the woods behind me and a photo of a wayside sign in the grass. That was Florida's high point, one of the lower 48.
