Bald Knob2 WVA

I climbed this one today (Lewis C. WVA). It is listed at 1724, the benchmark elevation. However, on the way I crossed over another high spot a few hundred yards northeast. Note that this also has a 1720 contour line around it. My GPS reading was 6 feet higher there than at BM 1724. Given the inaccuracy of GPS elevation readings, that's certainly not definitive. Visually looking at each spot from the other they looked to be the same height. So, there's at least room for doubt about the correct coordinates for the high spot.
