Thank you Skye for your most excellent coverage. This was so interesting. I'm new to the area, and thanks to you, I want to get out and have more adventures. I also commend you for explaining to the audience about what is required to access the private property. Time for you to have a contract with Travel Channel!
I’m planning on taking a detour and stopping there on my way from Michigan to Pigeon Forge in a week or so. Plus I’m going to post it on my channel! Looking forward to checking it out, and it was cool to get a preview of it!
Thanks for watching! If you want to take a detour after Black Mountain, consider stopping by the Big South Fork Nat'l Rec area to check out the Twin Arches as well. The largest arch complex in the eastern US. Safe travels!

Jessie Rice was my mom
Rooftops of America if you want pictures please add me on Facebook as Margo Posie Moody I can share pictures with you. Also I’d love to see the book these pictures appeared in because it was news reporters that took the photos though I don’t know the name of the book
Funny thing about Mt. Mansfield. We were snowed off the mountain when we were last there. Weren't able to get any real footage that day. As for Jerimoth Hill I've only got a rough outline so far script-wise.
Pathetic that Gov Beshear can’t step in and replace the lookout tower and clean up the area for tourists and ourselves. Can our tax dollars go towards anything of real significance? It’s an historical and geographical highlight. Smh…

Well done informative video. Going there this weekend. Thank you for your work
Hope you had a successful outing on Black Mountain!
Real hard time's back then. A very different era of time. Native American's used to live on the mountain.
There is no longer any need for a waiver to visit this highpoint!
I just signed it and mailed it in. Then just brought a copy with me.
Looks like a nice place to visit!
If you are a fan of the outdoors then Harlan County has a lot to offer!
Abs & Brat the coal companies did a lot of mountain top removal there. Still beautiful in some places but other places were destroyed

This is very interesting information! I enjoyed watching...
Thank you! I think you will enjoy this season. I go more into the history than I have in past seasons.

Rooftops of America Cool! I’ll have to see if we can work that into our schedule either on the way down or back north. Thanks for the recommendation!
Really nice video
Thanks! It was a fun one to film.
I have pictures of my family that was taken on that mountain when they were homesteaders there. Rice family
That is a great bit of family history Rose! Thank you for sharing.

Can't wait for your presentation of..
Jerimoth Hill (Rhode Island) and
Mount Mansfield (Vermont)

My grandpa Andy “Guy” was buried up there. I don’t know that his grave wasn’t destroyed by the mining folks
My mom Jessie Marie Rice was born here in May 1945
