Greylock is famous as part of Melville's inspiration for "Moby Dick" having the peculiar property of looking rather like the outline of a whale from Arrowhead, his Pittsfield home; nowhere else does Greylock resemble a whale, through the landslide on the Adams side of the mountain does resemble the head of an American Indian, and is popularly termed "Chief Greylock".
