Provin Mountain, Summit of Metacomet Ridge in Massachusetts, United States
The narrow traprock mountain ridge extends for 5 miles with steep cliffs rising between 200 and 450 feet above the Connecticut River Valley.
The mountain formed during the Triassic Period when the North American continent separated from Africa and Eurasia through volcanic activity.
The mountain peak housed the original studios of WWLP television station from 1953 to 2000, maintaining its transmitter tower at 475 feet.
Visitors access multiple trails for hiking, mountain biking, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing while observing raptor migration patterns throughout the seasons.
Underground reservoirs within Provin Mountain supply water to municipal Springfield through a network of natural storage systems.
