		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to Highpointers Gene and Lillian Elliott, visitation to this highpoint is permitted despite opposition from the neighboring Backbone Subdivision.
DO NOT VISIT the highpoint by going through the Backbone Subdivision.  Rather, go a mile into West Virginia and you will see the signs.
It&#8217;s a pleasant walk.
The highpoint is owned by West Pocahontas Coal Company.
