After much research online, I found what looks to be the perfect base camp near the summit of Leconte! This link describes it, and even has some pictures. It looks like there is a granite wall that should block the wind which is likely to be whipping around up there at 6500 ft. This mountain is about 200 ft. shy of Mt. Mitchell so I do think this would be a good spot. Check it out and let me know what you think.
