Seneca Rocks
A sheer quartzite fin and climbing mecca
A dramatic 900-foot blade of Tuscarora quartzite standing on end above the Allegheny highlands — one of the East’s premier rock-climbing crags and the only true peak in the East you must climb to reach. A short trail leads to an overlook at its base.
The shot
The fin against the Allegheny sky.
