LIDAR analysis shows that the small northern 2840-foot contour on the USGS map is about 4 feet higher than the larger contour to the south with the 2841-foot spot elevation. The southern contour has been leveled a bit by wind tower construction. Not counting the cairn, LIDAR says the northern contour is 2838 feet high and the high point of Crum Hill.

The fabled cairn by Tower 13. Oh(!) - don't forget to visit the area by Tower 17 unless you welcome the wrath of the purists (2015-09-13). Photo by Jobe Wymore. Click here for larger-size photo.
