Mountains

There really is nothing but wilderness down here, or as they might call it in NY, State Forest.

Grand Canyon Sign

This proves that the Pine Creek Gorge is really called the Grand Canyon. Also interestingly enough in this picture is several businesses, that use burn barrels for their trash. One also has a dumpster for the unburnables. Not something you would have seen in rural New York, at least any time recently.
