At just over 2,500 feet, it's the highest point on the TMT. In spring, look for red currant blooming here. From Tom's Crossing, the West Tiger #2 Trail heads steeply uphill providing another way to reach that summit. Continue down the TMT on many switchbacks and, in about 0.3 mile, note the junction with the K3 Trail.
I rarely show up more than 1.5 ahead of time. Another idea: technically, the ticket counters usually open 24 hrs before your flight, and sometimes this is the only way to easily get special seats like exit rows.
If you're checking bags,you generally need to have checked in and given your bag to the airline at least 30 minutes before departure. Depending on the airline, some destinations may require checking baggage more than 30 minutes before the flight.For example, if you are flying to New York or Los Angeles on American Airlines, your baggage cutoff time is 45 minutes before departure.his allows ample time for you to check in for your flight, check baggage and go through security screening. This recommendation refers to the time you actually arrive in the airport terminal, though. If you need to park, return a rental car or ride a shuttle from the airport parking area, include time for that.
