That beacon gave the name to that hill known today as Beacon Hill but once known as Chocolate Drop Mountain, near what is now the town center of Norco.[3] References1. ^1 {{cite ngs |pid=DX4210 |name=Norco Reset |accessdate=2014-03-10}} {{RiversideCountyCA-geo-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite peakbagger |pid=25948 |name=Beacon Hill |accessdate=2014-03-10}} 3. ^A BRIEF HISTORY OF NORCO, CALIFORNIA, from norco.ca.us accessed November 17, 2013 {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131228221556/http://www.norco.ca.us/about/norco_history/default.asp |date=December 28, 2013 }} 4 : Temescal Mountains|Mountains of Riverside County, California|Hills of California|Norco, California |
