Notice the obelisk portrait on the Montague apparatus. That's High Point Monument on the highest elevation in the state, 1803 feet above sea level, which is in the township. Montague is also at the top of the NJ state map when displayed on a wall as it is the northernmost municipality bordering New York State on the northeast and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania via the Delaware River on the northwest. It is one of those relatively rare places that borders more than one state in the US.

That always bugged me ... Montague got to have the logo for High Point , yet Colesville is actually a lot closer to the park . It is amazing how territories are divided . Luckily the park does not have any major structures , just lots of beautiful sights . Also thank goodness for mutual aid . As long as one of Montague's chiefs makes it to the scene they can call for another department that is closer for support . For many years Montague had a contract with Port Jervis to respond automatically on calls to its borders , but now they stand on their own feet . They have come a long way ...
