Free entrance, nice staff. 294 steps, which is a bit tireing, but worth it. Older than washington monument. 😊

Awesome looking monument. It’s worth climbing the 294 stairs to the top for the great views (not to mention that it’s a nice workout). And it’s free too so definitely check it out when you get the chance. Also a nice place to just chill and relax with friends and family.

Never got inside as it was closed but still worth the trip out to site. There's enough history in the hill itself and the monument huge, and well worth looking up at.
