Do the cats live on the summit year-round?
You bet! Cats have long been an integral part of the Observatory, and constant companions to the summit crew. The current feline resident, Marty, has full run of the Sherman Adams State Park building in the winter, but tends to stay in the Observatory proper in the summer. In the summer he regularly braves the outdoors to bask in the fleeting sun. During most of the year, however, he prefers the warmth of the crew’s quarters and the weather room.
