No offense but, can Mount Craig really be called a "mount" at all?
It has less than 290 feet of prominence and 0.89 miles of isolation. The slag pile at the local rock quarry has better stats. In my humble opinion a list of the highest peaks in the east should begin with: Mount Mitchell, Clingman's Dome, Mount Guyot, Mount LeConte etc.
Appalachia has so many named "peaks" that wouldn't even be noticed in most of the world...

Re: Mount Craig A Mountain At All?You should go and hang out there. It's an impressive peak. In all ways other than fame and a few feet, it's a far more impressive peak than Mitchell.
