Laurel Dale lies near the foot of
Dulls Gap. This opening divides the
New Greek Mountains. The Gap
reaches only half way down the
Mountains. yet opens the view through
the mountains to Knobly. Mill Creek
and South Branch Mountains. Seen
from the top of the Frontal Noun
tains from a point where the North
western Pike reaches the Sand Stone
Spring at the top of the range, this
Gap and its surroundings present a
scene of unsurpassed sublimity.
Through the gap, at its level, a
half mile wide, is seen range after
range of mountains. While on either
side of this deep ravine rise the
broken cliffs of the New Greek Noun
tains, Black Rock. and a long and
unbroken line of majestic summits
that reach from Keyser to Greenland
Gap. a distance 81 score of miles.
They look down upon a valley of
homes and hamlets, fruits and fer
tility, scattered clearings amidst a
wilderness of woods, forests and
rocks.
Tourists who have seen DulI's Gap
and the beauties of Switzerland say
that this Gap in the New Creek
mountains is equal in beauty to the
vistas in Switzerland
