ENTS, Thanks to some additions from Will Blozan, Ed Frank, and George Fieo, we now have 101 entries on the master Rucker Height list of sites with indexes of 110 or over. In time this list should grow to over 200, maybe over 300. In terms of the present, Pennsylvania coverage is number one. It is simply excellent - the gold standard. Thanks PA A-Team! We love you. I think we probably have enough information for a RHI for the Porcupine Mtns in Michigan if we pool our data and there are probably a few more sites out there. Having reviewed the work of the PA team, I am inspired to get out there and add some sites for Massachusetts. My next entry for the Bay State will likely be Stanley Park in Westfield. It has a good chance of making the 110 threshold. In terms of elsewhere in New England, Connecticut will have a number of sites that will make 110. I just have to find them. To the north, I have my doubts that I can log more than two or three sites for all of Vermont and maybe a second and third for New Hampshire. Maine? There may not even be one. Rhode Island? Probably a couple. The stuff growing near the coast is short. Going west, what about New York, the Empire State? Over there, t he sky is the limit, but alas, o ur New York coverage has gone to pot. Looks like I'm going to have to try to cover it from here. That's a lot of territory. I have attached the updated list.
