Holyoke Range
The Holyoke Range or Mount Holyoke Range is a traprock mountain range located in the Connecticut River Valley of Massachusetts. It is a sub-range of the narrow, linear Metacomet Ridge that extends from Long Island Sound near New Haven, Connecticut north through the Connecticut River Valley of Massachusetts to the Vermont border. A popular hiking destination, the range is known for its anomalous east-west orientation, high ledges and its scenic character. It is also notable for its unique microclimate ecosystems and rare plant communities, as well as significant historic sites, such as the Mount Holyoke Summit House and the Horse Caves.〔Farnsworth, Elizabeth J.

==Holyoke Range vs. Mount Holyoke Range==
Both names for the range are frequently cited by reputable published sources. For instance, both the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation and the non-profit Friends of the Mount Holyoke Range use ''Mount Holyoke Range,''〔 while the other form, ''Holyoke Range'' is used in several different map and guide sources (the USGS 1990 Belchertown 1:25000 scale topographic map,〔USGS map. Belchertown 1:25000 1990.〕 two longstanding popular retail hiking maps published by Newall Printing,〔Ryan, Christopher J. "Holyoke Range State Park: Western Section." 4th ed. Map. Hamilton I. Newell Printing, Amherst 1994.〕 the 1999 version of the Appalachian Mountain Club (AMC)'s ''Metacomet-Monadnock Trail Guide'',〔''The Metacomet-Monadnock Trail Guide''. 9th Edition. The Appalachian Mountain Club. Amherst, Massachusetts, 1999〕 and the 1989 version of the AMC's ''Massachusetts and Rhode Island Trail Guide'').〔''Massachusetts and Rhode Island Trail Guide.'' Appalachian Mountain Club. Boston, 1989.〕 However, the AMC's 2004 ''Massachusetts Trail Guide'' uses "Mt. Holyoke Range"〔''Massachusetts Trail Guide'' Appalachian Mountain Club. Boston. 2004.〕 and the United States Board on Geographic Names now uses "Mount Holyoke Range".〔(United States Board on Geographic Names. ) Retrieved December 18, 2007.〕) Both names as well as the abbreviated ''Mt. Holyoke Range'' are used locally.〔Examples abound in local news sources and other publications. Compare: (), a local advocacy group; and (), a map publication of Hampshire College〕
