I was very pleased how easy it is to see several landmarks in the same field of view. Of course, it remains to be seen how it will look when the foliage grows in. First photo is the 150th NY monument with several other monuments in the background.
Next, is the view from the 60th NY monument, looking downhill.
This shows the Forbes boulder with the top of the hill now visible.
The next 2 photos show how much better the earthworks can be seen. It's like an "alley" has been cleared behind the current monuments.
We did have a scary moment. Ranger Jason Martz was doing a spot with some young conservationists as WHTM -Harrisburg was recording. We heard a loud "crack" sound and a large tree near the General Greene statue came down. Fortunately, none of us were injured. As you can see, General Greene had been trying to warn us by pointing to the tree!
