Beautiful balds.Different that those of central or southern appalachians(see tipi's photos of Citico).More of a new england feel...

Thanks. Yes, they are different from the grassy southern Appalachian balds, although some of those grass/fern balds exist in north central PA.

I would guess the northern Appalachian ecosystems coincide with the Lake Effect belt.I have backpacked many a southern styled bald(the private property I lived on in central Va included one of the most beautiful atop a 3000' mountain),but never a northern styled.I was always chasing the Lake effect storms to the ski resorts.I will have to change that next time I get to Pa/WVa.
