Very true, and one of the main reasons that I live here.....but unfortunately most of those beautiful mountains are owned by Timber companies, and the mineral rights are owned by the coal and/or natural gas companies, with a tad owned by the oil companies......and now we have wind turbines on clear cut mountain tops that supply electricity to New Jersey.....like they would make a noticeable difference in Hoboken or Newark......
