Brasstown Bald, or Mount Enotah, is the high rounded peak to the south with a lookout tower and is the highest mountain in Georgia at 4,748 feet above sea level. Its Indian name, Itseyi, means “place of fresh green” and refers to its grassy rather than timbered summit, as does the name “Bald.” The first white settlers mistook this name for the similar one meaning “brass.” A Forest Service road leads to a picnic area near the summit.
