I fled to this place from the top of the big mountain because of the cold, rain, and wind. North Fork Mountain is in the rain shadow of the Allegheny Front (the big mountain), and this place is on the east side of North Fork, so weather has to make it past The Front and North Fork to get me here. Though there was gusty wind all day, I at least stayed dry and the temperature was in the 60s, not the 40s. A gust of wind did blow my tripod over when I wan’t paying attention to it, and yes the camera hit the rocky ground, but that is another story.
