Yeah, it's a wonder how it got its name. I assume it's because it has a long, level ridgetop that runs for about a mile with little change in elevation. But from several angles it is every bit as abrupt in appearance as Sharp Top.
Hmmm. Not sure. It's a bit south of Shenandoah. Considered to be solidly in central Virginia. The highest peak in central Virginia is a few miles north. It is along the crest of the Blue Ridge, but the Blue Ridge runs for hundreds of miles.

I wish the cloud ceiling had been higher. I understand that the views from Flat Top toward Sharp Top are really nice.
