When I was looking for the highest point of Wisconsin's Brown County, I first thought it was this location. A visual and closer inspection of the area next to the roadside communication tower shows that the mound of earth between the tower and the residence next door, on the south side of Scray Hill Rd (in the sliver of the town of Glenmore closer to the quarry) is higher than any area on the north side, in Ledgeview. The south area matches the location shown on Lists of John and Peakbagger. It could be however, that between the construction of numerous house lots and the quarry activity in the area, the landscape has been so altered, that it is impossible to accurately locate the original highest part of Scray Hill anymore. Incidentally I found out that the high point of Brown County is actually located on Morrison Hill, in an area of farms a few miles south of this area. I went there next.
