The
Blue Hills just west of
Bremerton, Washington, also called the Bremerton Hills, Bald Hills, and Wildcat Hills, consist of
Gold Mountain,
Green Mountain, and several informally named hills. Reaching an elevation of 1761 feet (537 meters), a thousand feet above the glacial till that fills the Puget Lowland, they form a prominent landmark visible around the region. They are formed of uplifted blocks of marine basalts, the steep-walled canyons between the various summits being the fissures between the blocks (particularly prominent at Gold Creek and
Union River). In addition to Gold Mountain and Green Mountain (the named members of the Blue Hills) are several other prominent peaks unofficially named according to their elevation (in feet):
- Kitsap Lookout, el. 1,360 feet
- (also known as Peak 1320),
- Peak 1291.
- Peak 730.
