Mount Wilkinson is a low mountain immediately north-northwest of and directly overlookingdowntownVinings, in southeast Cobb County, Georgia, USA. Although it rises significantly from the surrounding terrain, it is actually at or slightly below the average elevation for the region, as it is in the Chattahoochee Rivervalley. Formerly called Signal Mountain, today it is commonly known as Vinings Mountain.
The mountain, left only partly forested, is now topped with high-rise office towers, part of the Cumberland/Galleriaedge city of metro Atlanta. Among these buildings lies a small, private cemetery in which Hardy Pace (1785–1864), a founder of Vinings and operator of Pace's Ferry, is buried.
The Atlanta Rotary Club contributed one half of the $5,000 cost of the mountain and the other half was quickly made up by smaller gifts.[2]
The camp also included land that was sold to build the present day Cumberland Mall and surrounding office complexes and apartments. Streets in the immediate vicinity are still named for the camp (e.g. Bert Adams Road) and the mountain (e.g. Mt. Wilkinson Parkway).
