MOUNT GUYOT

"Although some parts of the Smokies are very rugged, with sharp changes of elevation, yet the range as a whole has no one dominating peak.  Mount Guyot (pronounced Gee-o, with g as in get), Mount LeConte, and Clingman Dome all are over 6,600 feet and under 6,700, according to the most trustworthy measurements.  Many miles of the divide rise 6,000 feet above sea-level, with only small undulations like ocean swells." (1913. Kephart, Horace. Our Southern Highlanders, p. 58.)
