North Pack Monadnock

North Pack Monadnock or North Pack Monadnock Mountain is a 2276 ft monadnock in south-central New Hampshire, at the northern end of the Wapack Range of mountains. It lies within Greenfield and Temple, New Hampshire; the 22 mi Wapack Trail traverses the mountain. Ledges on the summit offer long views north to the White Mountains and west to Mount Monadnock. Pack Monadnock Mountain is directly to the south along the Wapack ridgeline. The upper elevations of the mountain are within Miller State Park.

The east side of the mountain drains into the Souhegan River watershed, thence into the Merrimack River and Atlantic Ocean; the west side drains into the Contoocook River, thence into the Merrimack River.

Etymology
"Monadnock" is derived from the Abenaki language, and indicates a mountain surrounded by relatively flat terrain. According to local tradition, the word "pack" is an Abenaki word for "little". Thus "Pack Monadnock" (Little Monadnock) refers to its relationship to the higher Mount Monadnock, 3165 ft, 11 mi to the west. It should not be confused with the similarly named peak Little Monadnock Mountain, 17 mi to the west.
