	Saddle Hill (Aberdeenshire) Saddle Hill is a low lying mountain in eastern Aberdeenshire, Scotland within the Mounth Range of the Grampian Mountains. Its peak is above mean sea level. This hill is immediately north of the Roman camp of Raedykes.Archibald Watt, ''Highways and Byways Round Stonehaven'', Gourdas House Publishers, Aberdeen (1984) From Saddle Hill there are expansive views to the North Sea facing east and the valley of the Burn of Monboys to the east and southeast. Geology and hydrology Saddle Hill is situated approximately to the northwest of Stonehaven; surface runoff and drainage from the easternand southern slopes of Saddle Hill flow to the Burn of Monboys, a very slightly alkaline stream These low pH levels (compared to other area streams) may be caused in part by the peat drainage from the moorland on Meikle Carewe Hill and Curlethney Hill. Prehistory Neolithic traces of civilisation appear on the southwest flanks of the lower slopes of Saddle Hill in the form of cairns and sta ...

	Cerro De La Silla The Cerro de la Silla is a mountain and natural monument located within the metropolitan area of the city of Monterrey, Nuevo León, in northeastern Mexico. Named for its distinctive saddle-shaped profile when viewed from the west, it is a well-known symbol of the city of Monterrey, despite being located in the adjacent municipality of Guadalupe. It covers an area of 60.5 square kilometres (23 mi²). The mountain has four peaks: Pico Antena, Pico Norte, Pico Sur and Pico la Virgen; Pico Norte (North Peak) is the highest at 1820 m (5970 ft) while Pico la Virgen (Virgin's Peak) is the lowest at 1750 m (5740 ft).

	Saddle Hill, New Zealand Saddle Hill is a prominent landmark overlooking the northeastern end of the Taieri Plains in Otago, New Zealand. Within the limits of Dunedin city, it is located 18 kilometres to the west of the city centre, between Mosgiel and Green Island, and is clearly visible from many of the city's southern hill suburbs. A lookout on the northern slopes of the hill commands a good view across the plains, with Lake Waihola visible 25 kilometres to the west in clear weather. The hill has two peaks: the eastern is the higher, rising to 473 metres; the western peak – Jaffrays Hill – rises to 431 metres. Of largely volcanic origin, the hill is part of the extinct Dunedin Volcano complex, with a base of Cretaceous breccia overlaid with Miocene igneous rocks, these in turn overlaid with Cenozoic sediments. Erosion has revealed a volcanic plug on the western peak, giving the hill its distinct breast-like shape. The hill was – along with Cape Saunders on the Otago Peninsula – one of ...
