STATES HIGHEST POINTS
HIGH POINTS (18)
In March of 2022, I decided to make a photo-blog of me visiting the highest point in each state. A few years back, I met a couple at a kayak race in Illinois that were in a process of going to all 50 states highest points. I thought that it was an interesting idea and one that I would have to do one day. First of all, let's make one point clear, I am not out to climb each point, I am just personally visiting. If I can drive to a point, or drive to an easy walking point from parking my car, I am satisfied of my visitation. If need be, I will walk to the point as long as I can do the round-trip in one day. I do realize that it will be impossible for me to visit all 50 states high points; professional skill and supplement oxygen are needed in some ascents.

EBRIGHT AZIMUTH - BARKLEY, DELAWARE
The latitude and longitude coordinates (GPS waypoints) of the summit Ebright Azimuth are 39.835955 (North), -75.522182 (West), and the approximate elevation is 450' (137 meters) above sea level. Ebright Azimuth ranks 49th in the height on the list of highest natural points in each state. It is located in New Castle County. It is less than a quarter mile, south from Pennsylvania's border. Surveying by the Delaware Geological Survey personnel indicates that the true highpoint is under a mobile home in the nearby mobile home park approximately 300 meters west of the benchmark monument sign. And the true highpoint is at least 2' higher than the benchmark sign. Another USGS Benchmark is placed at the true point on private property.
