Located approximately 22 kilometers due west of Staunton, VA, Elliott Knob can be found on Great North Mountain in the George Washington National Forest. At 1,360 meters it is the GW's highest peak. The release site made use of an existing fire tower that was present on the ridge, now joined by a growing number of communications towers.

A popular hiking route, the trail up to Elliott Knob was less convenient for the frequent transport of food and supplies to the hack attendants. It had been chosen primarily because a few extra birds were made available for hacking after the other active hack sites were at full capacity. In the end it served its purpose well as a back-up hack site, but its remoteness and inaccessibility kept it off the list for additional releases.
