I've heard that that area of Pennsylvania is known as the "Endless Mountains" (separate from the Northern Tier?). I can see why they would use a name for a place like that. The drive from Emporium to Smethport fits this as well. I would love to see the mountains on Route 46 from Emporium to Betula (that really-winding stretch through the mountains) at a better viewing time instead of the bland time in between the departure of Winter and the arrival of Spring (yes, Spring has not arrived in this area or WNY yet). It must look really nice with Fall foliage, or snow, or in the Summer.
