This mountain is the highest natural point in the state of Mississippi and is located in the extreme northeast part of the state near the town of Iuka, Mississippi.

After my normal morning routine, I then drive west US 72A out of Madison Alabama, then west out of Decatur, and travel across the top of Alabama following the Tennessee river valley all along following a line of low elevation mountains not to far south of the river.

Upon crossing the state line, I stop in Iuka, Mississippi for fuel and ask about access to Woodall Mountain, if there is a road to the top. I say, I know that it is not very high in elevation but I would like to drive there. The clerk says, It may not be very tall, but is high for around here. When I get directions to this state high point, I drive there, park, sign the register and take photos. Soon another couple arrive, seeking to acquire the high point status and we talk for a short time. I give them one of my cards.
