Tully Mountain, 1,163 feet (354 m), is a prominent, steep-sided monadnock located in north central Massachusetts in the town of Orange, approximately five miles south of the New Hampshire border. An exposed south and west facing ledge on the summit provides views of the Millers River valley, Mount Monadnock, Mount Wachusett, and the Wapack Range. The 22 mile Tully Trail traverses the mountain.[1]
The mountain drains into the Tully River, then into the Millers River, then to the Connecticut River and Long Island Sound.[2]
