After Cass - - the train ride - - tour the town and learn it's and the area's history.
The Greenbank Radio Observatory offers tours and provides an "upclose and personal" opportunity to learn about the work underway to understand what is really out there beyond our solar system and galaxy.
Rt.66 west from Cass will take you over the mountain and into the Snowshoe ski and recreational complex. Great summer and winter activities.
And, my personal favorite, great trout fishing opportunities both on the Greenbank side and the Snowshoe side.
If you are into amateur radio, be advised that the area around Greenbank is a radio quiet zone - - can't transmit. Cell service is (or has been) very limited.
Great country - - altho I am a bit biased.
