John,
If you're just north of Newark Valley (Berkshire?), then you know this area well, I'm assuming. You can see the drilling rig from the new bridge that connects Apalachin to Campville. Best at night, when its lit up. I believe this rig is located off of Jewett Hill road, but once you spot it, you could find it by driving south on Pennsylvania Ave in Apalachin, turning right on Barton Road, and keeping you eyes peeled. I'm sure you could get the exact location by asking a few people. If it were me, since its just a short drive from your house, I'd take a look/w3tcompact/icons/eyes.gif.
