| The local natives up here are of a much hardier and wild stock |
| The two towers that serve as beacons for the Farmington Valley area |
| So much more like...somewhere other than Connecticut |
| Hight indicator - distance between me and the ground is about 100ft |
| The setting sun blossoms over the rolling hills of the Farmington Valley |
| This is my castle. I saw it, I claimed it, and so it is mine |
| The castle is actually just a remaining foundation from the Nike Missile Silo that used to be here |
| Different orientation of the same shot from above |
| This is just a neat perspective of one hill in Farmington's border in the foreground and Plainville, Southington, and more in the distance. About mid way up in the image is Robertson Airport, Plainville CT |
| Lovely hills |
| Such a departure from common Connecticut scenes |
| A cozy nook high above the valley |
| The space behind the peak of the ridge |
| More of the space behind Pinnacle Rock's peak |
| This is a much more gradual section of the rise aforementioned |
| The ridge rises about 50 feet from the first view, and the ground below slopes downwards towards the Metacomet Road area |
| The view of the same toward New Britain Ave. Loewe's Theater lies way yonder |
| The summit of this ridge. The Peak of Pinnacle Rock. I welcomed the safety rails |
| If you've traversed I-84 between Waterbury and Hartford, you will have noticed the UConn Health Center when passing the Farmington zone. There it is on your left. Its the gray block on top of that hill. And to your right?, that's Hartford, 30 minutes away |
| You can make out that building with the bright lights on the top, near Columbus Boulevard. If it were clearer |
| Just gorgeous |
