What would happen to the angle of Polaris in the sky if you were to travel from slide Mountain to Mount Marcy?

As you travel from Slide Mountain to Mount Marcy in the Catskills of New York, the angle of Polaris (the North Star) in the sky will change slightly. Polaris is located nearly directly above the North Pole, so its altitude in the sky corresponds to your latitude. Since Mount Marcy is at a slightly higher elevation than Slide Mountain, you would observe Polaris at a slightly higher angle as you ascend. However, the difference would be minimal due to the relatively small distance between the two peaks.
