Description

A postcard with the front showing a photograph of Montlake on Walden's Ridge near Signal Mountain, Tennessee. The postcard reads "Montlake, The Bright Star in Chattanooga's Scenic Wonderland, On U.S. Highway No 27 Just 12 Miles North of Chattanooga" The back reads "MONTLAKE: Nature's Masterpiece. Located atop Signal Mountain on U. S. Highway 27, just 10 north of Chattanooga. This amazing rock formation lies almost at the rim of the mountain and its water level is nearly 3,000 feet above sea level. There is no other formation of this kind known to geologists and its origin is one of the larger question marks of science. Just a short ride off the main highway over one of the most magnificent mountain roads in all of the Eastern states."
