This past August, I posted views of the Susquehanna River replica Statue of Liberty from the eastern shore. Click here to see previous post.
A few days ago, I tried to take some shots from the western shore. The level of safety along the road on Routes 11/15 isn’t much better than the Interstates 22/322 side … but a girl has gotta’ do what a girl has gotta’ do!
I am fairly disappointed in the outcome – Lady Liberty is perhaps even more obscured by vegetation on this side. Also, I should have tried to get there in the morning rather than the afternoon - because the shadows were already creeping up the side of the mountain when I arrived.
Nothing left but to hop in a canoe next summer and paddle over to see what Libby looks like up close and personal … stay tuned!

I’m going to take some additional photos later this year from the western shore (maybe adding a little “zing” to the view with autumn foliage?). Update: click here for the west shore view! [...]
