On our first day off the crew climbed up Mount Nittany not far from campus. This is a typical must-do thing for Penn State students and visitors so we figured we'd knock it off our checklist. Penn State's mascot - the Nittany Lion - comes from the lions that once roamed this nearby mountain. Penn State happens to be located in a beautiful valley thus it's nickname of "Happy Valley". The name fits too since the people here are very friendly! There's a great lookout point of State College, PA from Mount Nittany as seen in the picture above.
