Poole Hill is a mountain summit in Oregon that rises to 3,848 feet. A modest named peak, it has a brief but specific recorded history: it was named in the 1860s after Arthur Pool, although the modern spelling differs from his surname. Beyond its elevation and the origin of its name, little else is documented, but it remains on the map as a small reminder of Oregon’s 19th-century naming history.
