Nice hill, almost a drumlin. Great view in almost all 4 cardinal directions, especially west towards Mt Wachusett and Mt Monadnock.

Much more information is available here
(visit link)

although one can park on the side of RT40, it's not all that safe, and those are active farmers gates, and they can be very muddy & deep, so park down near the athletic field near 42 36.3 71 33.7
