I work in Uptown, on a 28th floor, and every day I see these mountains on the West side of the city. There are two which form a small ridge, and then further North, there is a single one that has an antenna on top. Any one knows the name of these mountains? Thanks.

You are seeing Crowders Mt and and Spencer Mt.
Crowders is the closest hiking mountain to Charlotte
I'll never forget the time one very clear morning that we could see snow on the blue ridge mountains from downtown! Grandfather Mtn. is roughly 80 away from center city.
I sometimes stand on the top of Pine Mountain (next door to South Mountain State Park) about 75 miles from Charlotte and look down on Charlotte. It's lovely.
If you are looking N to NW you are seeing Little Mountain (Anderson Mountian). Up hwy 16 pass Denver /hwy 150 going towards Maiden and Newton. There is a radio tower on top... You have an unobstructed view of Uptown from the peak!
Okay I'm confused...different mountains are mentioned here. Is it Little Mountain, Pine Mountain or Crowder's Mountain that you can see a view of Charlotte? Or are they all in the same park? And where is Tower Road? Which mountain is that on?
Tower Road is just above Hwy 150 off Hwy16 in Denver. It's nowhere near as far away from Charlotte as the other places mentioned (and I'm sure it's not as scenic!). But, it's our little mountain lookout and we like to retreat here every now and then.

Stripes, okay thanks. That might be fun to explore.
