The tallest mountain in Georgia is Brasstown Bald with an elevation of 4,783′ feet, just a mere walk-in the park for the average alpinist. Every year Alpinist Magazine, Black Diamond Equipment, Mountain Gear and Patagonia dedicates the Mugs Stump Award to people pursuing climbing objectives to exemplify light, fast and clean alpinism.
