All the way from bottom to top while hiking, the highest was probably Old Rag Mountain in Virginia. About 900 meters (2952 feet) at the top. Trail is moderate incline with a little rock scrambling at the top. Big boulders at the top to lounge on and great views. It used to be fairly obscure and you wouldn't see many people but now it became popular with the Northern VA/DC/MD crowd and it got so crowded you have to pay a fee and I believe make a reservation to climb it now.
I have also climbed straight up a wild mountain with no trails in Grant County, West Virginia. It's about 700 meters (2296 feet.) We crossed a river and went straight up, using trees to pull ourselves up the steep slope for most of the way. I'm not sure what the mountain is called, but it is rocky at the top and has a great view of a campground below.
Exploring like that is awesome
