== Mt. Greylock ==
Mt. Greylock is the tallest mountain in Massachusetts at 3491 feet. Its peak boasts beautiful views which on exceedingly clear days can include the Taconic Range to the west, the Green Mountains to the north, Mt. Monadanock to the Northeast, and up to eighty miles of the beautiful rolling topography of Massachusetts to the east. It has been said that fifty years ago, before the atmosphere got as polluted over the Northeast as it is today, you could see the outline of the Boston skyline with binoculars on a clear day. Several towns surround Mt. Gretlock including North Adams, Williamstown, Adams, New Ashford, Lanesborough, and Cheshire, providing numerous approach possibilities. For more information on the various options and to find out how to get there, check out the Massachusetts DCR's [http://www.mass.gov/dcr/parks/mtGreylock/ page about Mt. Greylock].
