Black Mountain Access Waiver

(Address Updated September 25, 2007)

We have reached an agreement to provide Highpointer access to the summit of Black Mountain which is posted as "no trespassing."

This is special arrangement is necessary because the coal companies are concerned about being held liable if one of the coal mine tunnels under the summit should collapse. This is still an active coal mine area. You must not leave the road to summit.

In order to access the Black Mountain summit, you MUST sign the waiver and MAIL to:

Penn-Va Operating Co
Attn: Steve Looney
2550 E Stone Dr Ste 200
Kingsport, TN 37660-5863

A parent or guardian must sign for a child under 18.

If you attempt to access the summit without signing and returning this form, you could be prosecuted for trespassing.
