The Peak. Though the woods were nice, this is really a hike to El Toro peak â the highest point in the El Yunque National Forest. We had great views from the peak â mostly of the back of El Yunque, the north and east coasts, and the towns in the NE part of Puerto Rico ( Ceiba, Naguabo, Juncos, Las Piedras, &Humacao).
The highest natural point in DE. Delawareâs highpoint, at 448 feet above sea level, is the second lowest in the U.S., ahead of only Floridaâs Britton Hill. Itâs third-highest if you count Washington D.C.âs highpoint on the list. But then thereâs the name: Ebright Azimuth. Where does it come from? Apparently the origin of this name is as mysterious as this tiny state itself. James and Grant Ebright owned the property on which the highpoint resides, so that explains part of the name, but Iâm uncertain as to the true beginnings of this curious name. Getting to Ebright Azimuth This highpoint is a literal drive-up in its truest form. The highest natural point in DE resides near the Pennsylvania border, in Barkley, DE, an unincorporated community in New Castle County.
