Here you go. I created this waypoint about 3 minutes ago. Use whatever
tool you like to correlate lat/long/elevation. Actual elevation closer
to 1220m....

"Brumley Mountain",,,3650.274N,08206.228W,1091.5m,1,,,,,,

Interesting, so I went looking with Google Earth...

That point seems to be on the side of a forested ridge at 1187m on the
Blue Mountains in VA.

A more obvious TP would be the rock outcrops at 35 50.11.9N 82 06.1492W,
or 3550.119N 08206.119W in Seeyou format, but of course ymmv.

Of course, this all assumes the OP didn't mean "Bromley Mountain", at the
top of the Bromley Ski Resort, Vermont at 996m (43 13'15.67"N 072
56'19.37W or 4313.157N 07256.1837W in SeeYou format) - which would be a
much more obvious turnpoint.

It's a ridge route. If you've done any flying of that sort, it'll make sense. If you haven't... look at the the topo and do the thought experiment.
