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.
What time do I need to arrive at the airport for my flight? Please be prepared and give yourself plenty of time for your upcoming trip. We recommend arriving at least two hours prior to your scheduled departure for domestic flights and at least three hours prior to a departure for an international flight.
