The Camels Hump in Vermont occasionally called the "Crouching Lion" is one of my inspirational mountains. Perhaps the thing I find most interesting about it is that it is so identifyable from most any viewpoint.
From the viewpoint a few hundred feet north of the summit of Mt. Allen in the ADK's. Camel's Hump is 71 degrees true and 55 miles away.
Here it is again from Dix, 48 miles away at 70 degrees true.
This is the view from the Gordon Landing - Cumberland Head Ferry. Camels Hump is 36 miles away at 138 degrees true, still with its very recognizable profile.
I have seen it many times from the east such as the summit of Lafayette and VT Route 302, but alas the photos are not very good.
