From Collinwood, take the Natchez Trace Parkway north for about 4-5 miles until crossing the second
road. About 200 yards past this crossing, a grassy roadcut is at the highest area. Park and climb up the
hill on the right (point 1).
Take Highway 13 north from Collinwood for about 3 miles to the highest area.
Point 2 is a benchmark on the west side of Highway 13.
Point 3 is in a field about 300 yards west of Highway 13, and a gravel road leads west, then north to the
highest area.
Point 4 is just northeast of the benchmark McCall, in a field between Highway 13 and Natchez Trace
Pkwy.
Point 5 is reached by taking a gravel road east under the Natchez Trace just south of benchmark
McCall. Bear left after going under the road to the farmhouse; this is on Point 4.
Point 6 is reached by hiking northeast through a field (infested with large ticks right now) for a few
hundred yards, then east for about 200 yards to the highpoint area, which has some junk spread around.
Point 7 is at a house along a gravel road heading east from the farmhouse at point 4.
Point 8 is about 100 yards east of the house, on a dirt road continuation of the gravel road.
Point 9 is south of point 7, across a fence and about 150 feet away.
