Jerimoth Hill

It is also a popular destination for highpointers, and prior to 2005 was known for being difficult to access due to a local landowner who prohibited entry.

Turner provided a right of way, straight north from the high point to Route 101, though eventually, it became overgrown.

For many years, hikers could not access the hill, because the only path to the summit crossed the driveway of a private property owner, Henry Richardson, who prohibited entry.

[5] Richardson posted "no trespassing" signs and installed a security system that alerted him whenever people entered his property.

[5] After Richardson's death, his property was purchased in 2005 by the Mosley family, who permitted daily access and eventually ceded the land to the state.
