History

An 1834 description read,

Alamuche Mountain is one of the chain of hills which bounds the valley of the Musconetcong creek in Warren county.[3]

gollark: If you want to do something actually usefulish, "FORTRESS", you can trilaterate GPS pings and find anyone who sends them (but not actually uniquely identify them since a few versions back).
gollark: If you have a hidden piston door or something and wireless control I guess it makes sense?
gollark: There are valid reasons to spam arbitrary channels, like when someone had a wireless light controller which worked by just checking channel and reply channel, and I knew *approximately* what those were, and wanted to meddle with their lights. But doing it without a target in mind is just pointless.
gollark: Yes, this has always been my problem with door locks; they don't actually do anything in Minecraft's threat model.
