Waggoner's Gap Hawk Watch & Hike
Join Dickinson hawk enthusiast and amateur photographer, Jeff Thompson ’73, on a favorite hike up to the Waggoner’s Gap Hawk Watch Trail during Golden Hawk migration season. This informal and casual get together is a great excuse to get outdoors and meet fellow Dickinsonians in the Central PA region.
This 125-acre hawk watching rock outcrop is situated on the Kittatinny Ridge, also known as Blue Mountain. Waggoner's Gap has one of the largest concentrations of raptors in the U.S., with 15,000 to 20,000 raptors passing through every year. It is one of the best sites along the Kittatinny Ridge, in the East to see Golden Eagles, and in PA to watch the fall hawk migration.
