There's another ancient buried impact crater beneath the Catskill Mountains of New York. That one occurred around 380 million years ago, near what's now Woodland Valley. The Esopus Creek runs along half of the rim. (that's a Route-28 sign at the upper left of the image). This thing can actually be seen rather easily on some New York State highway maps. It's about 6 miles wide and 19 in circumference. It's just to the northwest of Asokan Reservoir. However, as the articles state, it's deeply buried beneath the horizontal sedimentary rock beds of the Catskills. The only reason the circular feature is visible on the surface is because of weakness in the rock overlaying the actual crater's rim.
