Almost Heaven: Monongahela National Forest
The Monongahela National Forest holds a very special place in my heart. It has to be one of the most unique areas in the U.S. From nature’s grandeur to scientific pursuits, the area is full of hope and wonder. This past June was the Green Bank Star Quest held at the Green Bank Observatory, smack dab in the middle of the Monongahela National Forest (MNF). I have documented the GBSQ with multiple videos on my YouTube channel for more background. The weather for the week wasn’t ideal for night astronomy. But it was very nice for landscape photography. This is the portfolio from the week where I visited the Gaudineer Knob area of the MNF. This area is home to spectacular vistas and old growth Appalachian forest. It is a photography treasure trove. I hope to revisit again soon.
