According to the Wikipedia page for the town of Cornish, Clark Mountain is the town's highest point, at more than 1,320 feet (more than 402 m) above sea level. The same page also presents it as York County's highest point, and describes Hosac Mountain, at 1,320 feet (402 m), as the second highest point in the town and county, often mistaken as the highest point in the county. The York County page also lists Clark Mountain first among its community high points, at 1,320 feet, in Cornish.
In a report posted on the VFTT forum on November 2, 2009, the author gives 1,330 feet for Clark. He writes that the planned access points from the east were gated and posted; he went back around to the west, followed a new logging road for about half the distance, then continued off-trail to a summit with no view. In a message on November 3, 2009, he adds that the main road appeared very private and that, at his planned start, he saw "private, keep out" type signs. In the discussion, another participant describes Clark as a near drive-up with permission and mentions a paved road to the summit of Hosac that loops through the col, close to Clark. This information dates from 2009 and comes from forum posts, which describe access that is posted as private or subject to permission: check with the land manager before your outing.
