Nimham Mountain Multiple Use Area
Short, moderately steep hike to a historic fire tower offering wide panoramic views over Putnam County and Hudson Highlands. Shoot layered forests, seasonal foliage, and the steel tower itself; easy access via a paved service road (≈0.7–1 mile one way) and small free parking. Best at sunrise or golden hour for warm side light and long shadows; fall foliage and late-winter clear-air vistas are excellent. Trails are poorly signed—stick to the road if unsure. Tower has limited capacity; climb only
