“Storm King Mountain is a mountain on the west bank of the Hudson River just south of Cornwall-on-Hudson, New York. Together with Breakneck Ridge on the opposite bank of the river it forms "Wey-Gat" or Wind Gate, the picturesque northern narrows of the Hudson Highlands. Its distinctive curved ridge is the most prominent aspect of the view south down Newburgh Bay, from Newburgh, Beacon, and the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge. It can also be seen by southbound travelers on nearby sections of the New York State Thruway. This view was a popular subject for early artists of the Hudson River School.”

If you are into history, I would recommend a visit. You get a prospective on how things worked during the revolutionary war. A visit to Washington's Headquarters may spark your interest to dig deeper into the history of our nation and how hard is was to get where we are today. Call ahead to get a tour of the actual house Washington used as his HQ and living quarters.
