Jayne's Hill Long Island highest point


Jayne's Hill is the highest point on Long Island around 401 feet above sea Level.
The hill is part of Sulfolk County's West Hills park and oddly enough less than a mile from commercial malls. This hill was Walt Whitmans favorite place. Walt Whitman was America's greatest poets.
When Walt Whitman was young, on a clear day he could see south to fire Island and North to Connecticut. much to my diaspointment I saw nothing but trees and this big granite rock.
People hike up this mountain along differnet paumonk paths, but on weekings the locals told me that its a hangout kids to drink.
