Pennslyvania's High Point - "Mount Davis"

From Maryland, we drove north to Pennslyvania's high point along Negro Mountain. Mount Davis, at 3,213 feet may seem high, but due to the slow rise in elevation on the drive up, when we arrived it didn't feel like we were on a mountain at all. It was a nice drive up to the carpark where we walked to the fire tower marking the highpoint (the marker was on a large rock). The view was very nice, seeing across the plains. When we arrived, there was a Armish family (with 6 kids who looked so cute in their traditonal clothes, hats and bonnets!) who had come in their horse and buggy. As we were leaving, they all clambering into the buggy - all 8 of them! It was suprisingly they all fit!
