Abstract:

Hawksbill Mountain in Burke County takes its name from its peak where overhanging rocks project the striking likeness of a hawk's beak. At 4,000 feet the mountain is one of the few locations in the state's mountains where you can get a completely unobstructed view in every direction. Abernethy relates some of the interesting things visitors will find there.
