There are two summits atop the mountain: '''Signal Hill''', which reaches {{convert|2,753|ft}}, and '''Mossback Ridge''', which reaches {{cvt|2,700|ft|m|0}}. Mount Magazine is often called "the highest point between the [[Allegheny Mountains|Alleghenies]] and the [[Rocky Mountains|Rockies]]" (there are mountains located in the [[Trans-Pecos]] region of far-west [[Texas]] which exceed Mount Magazine in elevation and prominence, although the Trans-Pecos region lies so far south of the Rockies, that region arguably lies not "between" the Allegheny Mountains and the Rocky Mountains).
