A bridge on the Erie Railroad is visible in the distance, and there is an observation tower in the middle ground on the Wyoming County side. The bedrock is sandstone and shale dating from the Devonian Period. (Devonian Period: the span of the Earth's history from about 408 to 360 million years ago.)
