Mount Wellington rises {{convert|600|ft}} above lake level. The extreme southern point of the mountain is called "Shad Cam".[2] It is known as "The Sleeping Lion", as it looks similar to a lion laying down, viewed from Cooperstown, New York. It was originally named Mount Millington, but was renamed by George Hyde Clarke in honor of the Duke of Wellington, the victor of Waterloo, who had been Clarke's schoolmate at Eton College in England.[3][4] Clarke Point is located on the lake, at the southern edge of the mountain.
