Yes, those trees are on private property, that's why they haven't been trimmed in the past 3-4 years. The last time they were trimmed, there were still some large trees obstructing the view, but since they are in the backyard of the guy who lives on Scenic Dr, they can't touch those.

Also, I agree that area should NOT be a passing zone! With traffic slowing down to turn in to the hiking trails, the scenic view, Brookside Crossing, houses and even Scenic Dr/Belkanp Point Rd, there should be a center turn lane. I love how it took the state several weeks to paint the lines last summer after it was paved. I run along Rt. 11 a few times a week and many times there were cars driving on the shoulder, cause they thought it was another lane... Several times I had to jump into the grass to avoid being hit!
