Woodall Mountain, Mountain summit in Tishomingo County, Mississippi, US
Woodall Mountain rises 246 meters above sea level, making it the highest natural elevation point in Mississippi with three radio towers at its peak.
During the Civil War Battle of Iuka in 1862, Union General William Rosecrans used the mountain to position artillery for attacks on Confederate forces.
The mountain received its current name in 1884 from Zephaniah Woodall, a former sheriff who purchased the land after it was previously known as Yow Hill.
The summit includes a National Geodetic Survey marker, parking space for several vehicles, and a high point register for visitors to record their ascent.
Local stores near the mountain sell novelty shirts with the phrase 'Ski Woodall,' referencing the modest elevation of this state high point.
