Not second highest peak in the carribean
even the source referenced, peakbagger, listed the next closest higher mountain as Macaya, in Haiti. With Duarte, that would make it no better than third, and there are others like Pic La Salle in Haiti that are also higher.
About the only thing you could claim is that it is the second highest Ultra peak (as in the highest mountain on its landmass) in the caribbean, as the other higher ones are all on Hispañola, whether on the Haiti or Dominican side.
Aapold, you are absolutely correct. That was me who added that nonsense a couple years ago
[1]. Eesh, I don't what I was thinking, must have misread the source. Totally on me. Good catch! --

In theory you could see Pico Turquino (Cuba's highest mountain) from Blue Mountain if they were 378 km apart. Cuba and Jamaica are 384 km distant at their closest, and when you have to add the distance from the coasts to the peaks the distance increases. Can you find a photo of Cuba from Jamaica (or vice versa)? I doubt one exists. More likely clouds on the horizon look like an island in the distance. — Preceding
