be closed during wartime due to its excellent vantage point
over Hudson River. Great view across to Bear Mountain
and Hessian Lake. All it needs is a better name.
2-Shenandoah Mt. One of several rocky open summits,
this one features a lovely view down on Canopus Lake.
3-West Mt. At this point the landscape is returning to the
long ridges typical of the trail further south and West Mt
is the best place to see it. The valley is surprisingly green
for having a commuter rail line.
4-Prospect Rock. Welcome to the NY rollercoaster.
It's still a great viewpoint to the mountains around and
Greenwood Lake below.
5-Bear Mt. A bit too much love (as in too many people)
on this one dodging in and out of the road on the way up.
Still, it's a fun mountain and the park as a whole is a gem.
