Holmes County High Point Trip Report

Take exit #164 from I-55. This road is called Emory Road, though it seems to be called Hwy. 19 east of
the interstate exit. Go west 5.1 miles to Molly Moore Road (gravel), and turn left. To get oriented, go 0.3
mile to the Finch Road Y-shaped intersection. Though I didn't find it, this is the "BM 492" site shown on the quad.
Backtrack 150 feet or so to a muddy woods lane on the south side of the road. Hike on it to the hill crest,
at and along-side the lane, about a quarter mile in.
There were no restrictive signs. Oak woods, nice local topography. Practically a gimme for anyone
traveling I-55 between Memphis and New Orleans.
