It's named after the nearby town. The name itself is a bit of misnomer, as it's pretty flat there. But it IS one of the highest points in the state!
Two jet routes approach it from the west, one continues to the east, and that one stops 28nm later at a waypoint. It just stops! I hate to see that. Airspace redesign.
To the south is some extremely busy training airspace.
Its location in the state is that of a component of a kitchen implement.

This Navaid is located at a busy airport in the United States, and shares its name and identifier.
It was recently relocated (news media reported it as a "radar tower") a short distance to accommodate airport expansion, and was made a Doppler VOR at that time.
It's near an airport viewing area and an interstate highway.
The name of the city (and airport/VOR) refers to a military stockade which was in use during skirmishes with Native Americans.
