Mt Washington, in NH, has a summit at 6,288 ft.
Mount Mitchell in NC is just a little higher at 6,684 ft.
Not all that high, but as high as you can get east of the Mississippi.
Climbed Washington dozens of times in the 1970s as a boy scout, climbed
Mitchell with my own sons many times.
Honey bees and bumblebees on both peaks, despite a lack of anything much but
water for them to forage upon.
The tree line is about 4,400 ft on Washington, but Mitchell, being a more
southern mountain, has trees and vegetation of one sort or another right up
to the peak.
