A “promontory” by definition is a high point of land or rock projecting into a sea or other body of water. The Promontory Mountains span the length of the Promontory Peninsula. Promontory Summit (Visitor Center and Last Spike Site and historic location of the town of Promontory) is located at the highest point of the Promontory pass.
