Trump Knob Proposal Sparks Debate | Washington DC News

A Woodstock property owner is offering to give away 53.5 acres of land—on the condition it’s renamed “Trump Knob” in honor of President Donald Trump—and wants the access road upgraded to turn it into a tourist hotspot. While the Shenandoah Valley Battlefields Foundation balked at funding roadwork and raised environmental concerns, Pollack, a retired Marine, sees his plan as the only way to gain access to the nearby Forest Service-owned summit. The town of Mount Jackson is eyeing recreational use, but the Forest Service says no formal proposal has been submitted. Pollack even dreams of hosting a presidential visit, envisioning a flat summit perfect for helicopter landings—and he’s already pitching his idea to political candidates.
