Remarks:

Two small windows are visible on the top of a craggy ridge line (Little Duck Hawk Ridge) 1000' to the west of the Alum Cave Trail. The windows are best viewed as the trail climbs N toward Alum Cave. Peregrine falcons are often seen along the ridge line. The waypoint is for the northern most window. The second window is at 35.6352 N 83.4456 W, 250' south.
