The Blue Ridge contains the highest mountains in eastern North America south of Baffin Island. About 125 peaks exceed 5,000 feet (1,500 m) in elevation. The highest peak in the Blue Ridge (and in the entire Appalachian chain) is Mt. Mitchell in North Carolina at 6,684 feet (2,037 m).
Woodall Mountain, near Iuka, is the state's highest point of elevation, and rests peacefully at the base of the Appalachian Mountains. Pickwick Lake and Tishomingo State Park are popular stops. A brushy ravine separates the eastern and western summits of the mountain.
