Page Four Hiking Routes Abound In Nearby Mountains Students Interested in outdoor rec reation and hiking have splendid op portunities to take advantage of nu merous mountains and trails which lie within a few miles of State Col lege. Probably the most popular hike is the one to Shingletown Gap, only four miles south of town. It is here that the reservoir on which State College relies for a portion of its water sup ply is located. Excellent views of State College lying in the Nittany valley can be obtained by climbing the sides of the gap. Three miles beyond Shingletown is Bald Top, a treeless, steep mountain 2,300 feet in height. From its peak, a view of many miles of mountains and country is afforded.

To the west of Shingletown Gap is Musser’s Gap. From this gap, a trail leads between the first and second mountains to Shingletown. The gap can also be reached by following the top of the first mountain. One of the more interesting and longer hikes is the one to Bear Mead ows, a swampy region in the valley of the fourth ridge of mountains south of State College. Here are found many rare plants and animals. The Meadows can be reached by pass ing through Wright’s Gap, east of Shingletown. About six and a half miles by the State road from State College is lo cated Pine Grove Mills, which is so called because formerly two mills in a white pine grove were situated there. By passing through a gap in the mountains above the village, and climbing the second ridge, the hiker can obtain an excellent view on a clear day. A new road to the top of the mountain mikes climbing easy. About two miles farther, the road crosses Laurel Run which leads to the east and joins with the Bear Mead ows road. About a mile from Laurel Run, Whipple Dam is located, where excellent swimming and camping fa cilities ave found. The most famous mountain is Mount Nittany, in whose shadow nestles the little town of Lemont, about three miles east of State Col lege. From the summit of Nittany, Penn's Valley can be seen running between the Nittany and Seven Mountain ranges and extending into the Nittany Valley between the Bald Eagle range and the Seven Moun tains.
