The east and west branches of the Delaware river meet at Point Mountain. Atop the mountain is a mosaleum built in the 40's and now abandoned.
In the 60's, New York route 17 was designated most scenic highway in the nation. Dozens of natural spring fed lakes dot the countryside for miles around. A ride along the Delaware toward Equinunk is very picturesque, as is the ride north to Downsville. Dramatic rock cuts and tumbling river rapids mark the way. Autumn foliage peaks the first week of October, and March brings a generous maple syrup production season.
Summer gardens abound with fruits and vegetables of all varieties, and area apples are among the sweetest and juiciest in the world. November brings hords of deer hunters to the area to bag trophy white tails. Goose, duck, and pheasant hunting are popular in the area.
The Delaware river and the many streams that criss-cross the countryside are regularly stocked with brook and brown trout. Winter brings record snowfalls (over 100 inches in 1995), and makes the skiing terrific. Several ski resorts are within 45 minutes of Hancock. Snowmobilers have reclaimed the old railroad beds in the area, making literally hundreds of miles of trails available for that popular sport.
Only 4 hours from New York City, New Jersey and Philadelphia, the location is convenient, affordable, and sufficiently isolated to make it a perfect summer or winter vacation retreat. Accommodations include motels, hunting lodges and bed and breakfact homes.
