Gap Between Mooreville Range and Irish Mountain

|

I've always liked driving through that narrow gap that US 30 runs between the Mooreville Range and Irish Mountain in the Catskills. There is a rail trail there, which I tell myself one of these times I should explore, maybe while also camping at Burnt Rossman Hills State Forest.

Heading Back Towards Alder Lake Dam

The dam is a pretty white cement. I do not know how old it is, but it may date to prior it being a Boy Scout camp, and may have been done that color to be nicer looking for the Alder Lake Lodge.
