At {{convert|122|m|ft|0|abbr=on}} above mean sea level, it is the country's highest point. The Mountain of Smoke is named as such because of the haze which often surrounds it on humid days. A number of caves of indeterminate type are in the vicinity of the mountain.[2] Flint dating to the Stone Age have been found on and around the hill.[3]See also
