Hike Description. Mount Mitchell is the highest peak east of the Mississippi river at 6,684' in elevation. While there are much easier ways to reach the top, part of the appeal of this hike is the experience of summiting this superior peak.
Before Mitchellâs death, Adams says she visited him in jail. Due to how much weight her nephew had lost, Adams first insisted sheâd been taken to visit the wrong man. Before his jailing, Mitchell was a rather tall, 185 pound man. When she visited him in jail, he looked âprobably 90 pounds and about 70 years old,â Adams says. âHe was unrecognizable.â During Mitchellâs booking at the Hampton Roads Regional Jail, he was deemed âdelusionalâ and âpsychotic.â
