Atop Blue Mountain, we discovered the corona effect. Mountaintop sunrises and sunsets are gorgeous by their very nature, but on Blue Mountain – and later Tray Mountain – the wrap-around view meant a very special show. At dawn and dusk, the skies lit up all around us in shades of purple and pink, slowly fading out in the evening and in during the morning. A natural light show, thanks to the lack of leaves on the trees and these perches for hikers created by GATC.
