Putnam County High Point Trip Report

two areas 1/2 mile southeast and 1 mile south-southeast of Trotting Pond (220+ ft)

This area has hardly changed a whit since Fred Lobdell's October 1999 visit.

Some updated information: Flamingo Boulevard becomes Rome Avenue, and you drive 1.8 miles to the end. Four and a half years later, the same barbed wire strand is still drooping as Fred described. In winter, go a little beyond the summit for a good view of Trotting Pond through the bare oak trees.

For the southern area, to find the high ground near a fence line, head for the house nearest the corner as you look back north from the crest. Aim for the fence line to the north of the house.
