JollyJake99 Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 Several times this past season, while standing at the entrance to Cliffy, looking NE, kinda in the direction of Great Wolf, I saw what looked like barely visable "mountains" on the horizon. These were only visable on VERY clear days. Could these be the Catskills? Quote
RidgeRacer Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 Yes...They are the Catskills. They can only be seen on very clear days. If you go to Big Pocono State Park (drive to the very top of Camelback Mt.) There is one of those view finder things (those binocular things you neet to throw a quarter in order to get it to work). On the viewfinder it tells you exactly where to look (to the northeast) to see the Catskills. The view from the top of Camelback isn't the best IMO but that's definitely one of the highlights Quote
Ride Delaware ? Posted June 27, 2010 Report Posted June 27, 2010 I was at Sugarbush in March this year, and you can see everything in the Northeast from there lol... Mount Washington, Whiteface, Stowe, and Jay... Pretty sweet view if it is clear... Quote
RidgeRacer Posted June 28, 2010 Report Posted June 28, 2010 Whiteface is cool. Look left and you can see Lake Champlain and Mt. Mansfield. Look straight and you can see Camel's Hump. To the right you see Mt Marcy and the rest of the high peaks directly in front of you. Quote
rgrwilco Posted June 28, 2010 Report Posted June 28, 2010 its crazy how much of everything you can see that far north. driving back from montreal i was able to see whiteface from just outside the city, stowe, mt washington, and whiteface at the same time from 87. i can barely see philly from my house and its only 3 miles as the crow flies Quote
Ride Delaware ? Posted June 29, 2010 Report Posted June 29, 2010 If only Camelback had the climate of the Catskills... Quote
Switchsideskier. Posted June 29, 2010 Report Posted June 29, 2010 I could see Blue from my apartment if it was 50 feet higher and they cut down some trees.. Same here, Blue the Giant nightlight Quote
