Massamet Mountain

Massaemett Mountain (sometimes known as Bald Mountain) is a mountain in Shelburne, Franklin County, Massachusetts, USA. It is named for a chief of the Pocumtuck tribe, a confederacy of Native Americans who inhabited the region. Part of the Berkshire Mountains, Massaemett lies just east of the village of Shelburne Falls, 7 miles (11 km) west of the county seat of Greenfield, Massachusetts, and 87 miles (140 km) west of Boston. The summit features a historic stone fire tower constructed in 1909. The top cab is not open to the public, however the stairway is kept open and offers views from multiple windows facing the four directions of the compass. From the tower, views include the Berkshires and Taconic Mountains to the west (including Mount Greylock), the Green Mountains of Vermont to the north, Mount Wachusett to the east, and the Holyoke Range to the south.

The High Ledges Wildlife Sanctuary is located on the northern portion of the mountain. Shelburne State Forest encompasses the peak of the mountain. There are two hiking trails which provide access to the summit.
