There are actually three different ridges in the Watchungs:

  • 1st mountain- Orange
  • 2nd- Preakness
  • 3rd- Hook




The mention of Hook Mountain is confusing, since there is a well-known Hook Mountain in New York state, the map and text in this article seem to refer to a Hook Mountain in N.J. (near Lincoln Park, NJ), and there is no readily available online information about a Hook Mountain in N.J. (when doing a standard internet search). Is the reference to Hook Mountain a mistake?

Also, the map and text don't relate well to each other. The text should probably be edited.

Also, I don't do many Wikipedia contributions, but I thought there would be a clear place to post comments like this (a discussion page); in this case, there's a Talk page, but I couldn't tell if that is the place to post these comments.

The ridge circling the north edge of Great Piece Meadows is better known as Towakhow Mountain; Hook Mountain is an old synonym, probably little used to avoid the confusion you mentioned. Choess (talk) 10:58, 15 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
