About Corning Tower Shadow ....
This shows an analysis of the maximum point of shadow at 2 PM from the Corning Tower in Downtown Albany. As one might guess, the shadow is much shorter in the summer due to the higher elevation of the sun. There are two separate sun paths, reflecting the later hour during daylight savings time in the summer.
More about Beartown State Forest...
The 7211 acre Beartown State Forest is named for its proximity to a former small pioneer settlement by that name. The main access road leading from the north into this forest also "bears" the same designation. Granite bedrock forms the base for the mostly shallow, poor soils found here. Rock outcrops are common, with beaver inundated wetlands occupying the low areas.
