A photo story

Woodall Mountain, Mississippi

I made it to Woodall Mountain, the highest point in Mississippi, in April 2025. It's in Tishomingo County, near Iuka, in the northeast corner of the state. I took this selfie at the top with the big boulder, a bench, and the register box marked Woodall Mtn behind me, under tall pines and a bright sky.

The summit has communications towers on it, and you can drive up a gravel road to the parking area at the top, so the walk to the marker is very short. It's privately owned, and the fenced tower area is separate from the high-point visit.
