Highpointers Foundation

At Baxter State Park surrounding Katahdin in Maine, the Foundation funded two local students as Fellows of the Friends of Baxter State Park to conduct research in the Park near Katahdin. The two students spent the summer of 2024 conducting significant research to support the area surrounding the Highpoint. In addition, the Foundation funded students involved in trail work on Katahdin.

At White Butte in North Dakota, the Foundation funded significant trailhead renovations and trail work in cooperation with the local Maah Daah Hey Trail Association. This included an informational kiosk, a second puncheon bridge across a wash, and substantial trail renovation, resulting in vastly improved access for visitors of all physical abilities. The Foundation pays for a liability policy each year.

At Charles Mound, the Illinois Highpoint, the Foundation funded access lane improvements including 3 loads of gravel and a culvert. The Foundation provided three additional new signs for the access lane gate, and the private driveway, to advise visitors of the Open Access Date status. The Foundation funded a new bench for the owners to place on the summit, with a custom brass plaque.

At Brasstown Bald in Georgia, the Foundation funded a sign denoting the new benchmark alcove which was installed on the wall nearby.

At Taum Sauk Mountain in Missouri, the Foundation provided brand new green routered polycore arrows to replace the broken and faded wooden ones that had been affixed to two large poles for decades. These arrows point to the other 56 State and Territory Highpoints, denoting State, Name, Elevation and Distance away. Installation is expected in Summer 2025.

At Driskill Mountain in Louisiana, the Foundation provided and installed a new sign for the Mount Zion Church at the trailhead, which allows for access for visitors.

At Campbell Hill in Ohio, the Foundation funded a fund-raising paver stone towards a Highpointing Museum in cooperation with the NADRAM Air Force Squadron Museum, located on campus at Campbell Hill and the Ohio Hi-Point School. This allowed for more memorabilia to be displayed, and visitors are encouraged to see the exhibit while at the Highpoint hill nearby.

At Mount Arvon in Michigan, the Foundation provided a replacement bench at the summit, with a custom brass plaque.

At Hoosier Highpoint in Indiana, the Foundation funded a new bench with a custom brass plaque.

At Jerimoth Hill in Rhode Island, the Foundation paid for the demolition and removal of three junked out sheds formerly owned by Brown University for the Astornomy Program there, which had been vandalized in the previous decade. The access lane required remediation to accomplish this, including tree removal.
