A little too much snow and ice to use the viewing telescope.

Traveling from New Jersey to the Boston area and then on to Montreal Canada afforded me the opportunity to take a quick detour to New Jersey’s highpoint, aptly named High Point. The elevation is 1803′ with a paved road almost to the top. Once on top, it was windy, cold and icy as the area had gotten a couple inches of snow the evening before. Crystal clear skies and 180 degree view from the top made for an enjoyable detour.
