Pilot Mountain and Mount Pilot....confused yet?


Confused over the difference between Pilot Mountain, the mountain/town and Mount Pilot, the town mentioned repeatedly on The Andy Griffith Show.


Here is Bill Leslie from WRAL's article on his interpretation:

Pilot Mountain
Posted: Sep. 30, 2008
The first brush of fall is sweeping across North Carolina. I encountered autumn's early scarlet glow at Pilot Mountain 30 miles north of Winston-Salem Sunday. I see Pilot Mountain everytime I go to my cabin off the Blue Ridge Parkway at Glade Valley. Well, I see it everytime the weather is clear. But I had never stopped to see Pilot Mountain up close. What was I waiting for?The state park here is beautiful with lots of great trails and beautiful scenery. The area offers a two for one deal. You’ve got Hanging Rock State Park just a few miles south of Pilot Mountain off Highway 52.
