Since there are 67 Counties in PA, I'm gonna limit the poll to regions!

I live in Berks County!

Well, not to be too different, but, we live in Monroe County very close to the Delaware Water Gap (Which I pass through, at least, once a week on the way to visit family in northern New Jersey.)

Haven't done it recently; but I used to enjoy climbing all the way up to the very top of Mount Tammany and, then, stand out on that big protruding boulder a mile, or so, up in the air in order to watch the military jets from McGuire and Dover Air Force Bases come roaring in right at eye level!

It's really cool when the pilots wiggle their wings and raise one hand up next to their faces as they zip on by! It's always surprised me that you barely hear these jets as they come in on you. Most of the incredible noise is when they're right on top of you and after they depart.

That used to be a great climb! I'm too old now to do it, anymore; but the, so-called, 'short route' up the precipitous south face was half the fun of getting up there. In 45 years of climbing to the top of The Gap I think we only used the (really) long, but gradually inclined, northern trail only once. (Scenic, but nowhere near as much fun.)
