Abstract:
Known for years as the Black Brothers, Mt. Craig and Big Tom mountains near Mt. Mitchell, are the last of the Black Mountain peaks to be officially named by the Federal Board of Geographical names. Soaring nearly as tall as the peak of Mt. Mitchell, Mt. Craig and Big Tom can only be explored on foot given their range of forbidding forests.
