This is the best overlook you will get of the Water Gap. The view of Mount Tam's partially exposed diagonally-layered cliff face makes for a dramatic sight across the Delaware River. This is also an epic sunrise spot! The summit is not far up the trail from here and yields views south over the countryside, but this is the highlight of the mountain.
