History

The Scray family was among the first settlers on the hill. They farmed, quarried, and constructed the first road on the hill.
The Daanen-Janssen Co. continues to operate and excavate at the Scray Quarry.
According to an urban legend, the nearby golf course, which bore the name Mystery Hills from 1964 to 2003, got its name from a magic spot on the road. Many have said you could turn off a car's engine and put the car in neutral, and the car would roll uphill. This gravity hill illusion was written up in Ripley's Believe It or Not! in the early 1930s.
Scray Hill Park is a park, established in 2008 and opened in 2010, just to the east of the hill's summit.
