This cleared area sits atop the Allegheny Front on
Shaffer's Mountain, 800 feet above the valley floor. Here
the public is invited to join volunteers who maintain a
daily vigil in the spring and fall, counting raptors who
use this flyway annually for migration. As many as 18,000
raptors have been counted here during the fall migration.
