Birding Trails Location is everything, they say, and that goes for the Allegheny National Forest Region and birds. More than 200 species of birds can be found on the Allegheny National Forest, including bald eagles and osprey. The most common birds found are the ruffed grouse, the state bird of Pennsylvania, and the . Buzzard Swamp, south of Kane, is a prime area to view these birds. The mourning warbler will likely be seen in clear-cut areas. Some of the most common warblers seen here are yellow, chestnut-sided, yellow-rumped, northern parula and bay-breasted. The hard-wooded forests are home to such birds as the yellow-bellied sapsucker, winter wren and hermit thrush. Osprey (Pandion haliaetus) are a fish- eating bird of prey usually mating for life. Osprey nests can be viewed from Rt. 321 from the Red Bridge Area, Chappel Bay, Sugar Bay and Rt. 346 from Willow Bay.

Bald eagles (haliaeetus leucocephalus) are among the largest birds of prey. They may weigh up to 14 pounds and have seven-foot

wingspans. Bald eagles are Photograph by Rocky Holland readily identified by their white heads and tails; however, they don’t attain this plumage until five years of age. They nest in large trees near water. Bald eagles have been sighted at the Allegheny Reservoir, Tunungwant Creek, and north of Eldred along the Allegheny River and Oswayo Creek. Birding Sites An excellent interpretive trail, Timberdoodle Flats, is a 1.4 mile loop trail located along Rt. 59 southwest of Bradford.

In the meantime, have your photo taken beside a statue of Bigfoot at Rock City Park, or at Bell’s Market in Kane, while shopping for Bigfoot Sausage, and of course you can always purchase a bottle of Bigfoot Wine at Allegheny Cellars in Sheffield!

30 ALLEGHENY NATIONAL FOREST REGION OUTDOOR ADVENTURES Kinzua Bridge State Park The park is home of the Kinzua Sky Walk, “One of the Top 10 most Scenic Skywalks in the World,” by Culture Trip in the U.K. The park welcome visitors from around the world. The Kinzua Sky Walk extends 624 feet, at a height of 225 feet, into the beautiful Kinzua Gorge. The Kinzua Viaduct built of steel in 1900 stood for over 100 years. In 2003, an F1 tornado swept through the Kinzua Gorge, picking up 11 of the huge steel towers, and within 30 seconds, nature had brought the mighty span to its knees. The fallen bridge towers and nature’s regeneration of the forests are now a living demonstration of the power of wind. Following the tornado, six of the original steel towers of the Kinzua Viaduct were reinvented as the Kinzua Sky Walk. The towers were reinforced with new bridge decking, railroad tracks were repaired, and a partial glass overlook was added at the end of what is now the Kinzua Sky Walk. Visitors may experience the thrill of “walking the tracks across the sky.”

Aerial Imaging Kinzua Bridge Visitors Center Now Open The center has two exhibit halls with displays showcasing the history of the Kinzua Viaduct, the tornado and the reinvention of the standing towers as the Kinzua Sky Walk. The two-story, 8.9 million dollar building, with innovative hands-on exhibits, includes two classrooms, the flagship Pennsylvania Wilds Artisan Shop, restrooms and park offices.

Park amenities include forest shaded picnic areas and hiking trails. The Kinzua Creek Trail is a challenging trail to the bottom of the gorge; the General Kane Trail is an easy trail suitable for families. During the year interpretive programs are offered. A park pavilion is available for rent. Motorcoach and groups are welcome with advance notice. Plan Your Trip The Kinzua Bridge State Park is open daily from 8 am to dusk, with seasonal hours during the winter season. Admission is free to both the Kinzua Sky Walk and to the park.

McKean County, Pennsylvania MCKEAN COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA 3333 HISTORY TRAIL

Tracks Across the Sky Hidden … deep within the forest of Northwestern Pennsylvania … an engineering masterpiece, the Kinzua Viaduct once soared 301 feet high and 2,053 feet across, and was at one time the highest and longest railroad bridge in the world. In 1882, General Thomas Kane, a Philadelphia lawyer, decorated Civil War veteran, and president of the New York, Lake Erie and Western Coal Company, had rich coal deposits south of the Kinzua Valley. But since his customers were to the north, Kane needed to cross that valley. Kane needed a bridge. Paris-born Octave Chanute, chief engineer for the Erie Railroad, rose to the challenge. The man who would later help the Wright brothers fly had a bold solution … a bridge unlike any the world had seen. Once billed as the “Eighth Wonder of the World” this masterpiece was hit by a tornado in 2003 and laid in partial ruins until September 15, 2011 when the grand opening of the Kinzua Sky Walk brought life back into the Kinzua Bridge State Park. The Kinzua Sky Walk is a pedestrian walkway built on six of the historic viaduct towers which remained following the tornado. Extending over 600 feet out into the gorge, the skywalk features an octagon-shaped overlook at the end with a partial glass floor which allows visitors to peer down below. Visitors can once again experience the thrill of “Walking the Tracks Across the Sky” as they enjoy stunning views spanning miles across the landscape. History of the Bridge Chief Engineer Octave Chanute contracted the Pennsylvania firm of Clarke, Reeves & Company to design and fabricate the bridge. Adolphus Bonzano designed a wrought iron bridge using his “Phoenix Column,” an engineering breakthrough that enabled tall structures to resist vibration and buckling. The bridge was pre-fabricated in Phoenixville, near Philadelphia, and transported to the site for erection. Once the sandstone foundation piers were in place, 125 men completed the construction in just 94 days. Three and one-half million pounds of iron and $275,000 later, the first steam- powered train rolled across delivering General Kane’s coal to market. The Viaduct was an immediate sensation. It stood 24 feet higher than the Brooklyn Bridge and became an instant tourist attraction. Walking out on the bridge was the next best thing to flying. But by 1900, the locomotives and railroad cars hauling coal and timber across the Viaduct had become larger and heavier. A stronger steel bridge was required. Using 6.7 million pounds of steel held together by 895,000 rivets, workers erected a new bridge to replace the original. Two timber travelers worked toward the center, demolishing the oil iron towers one at a time as the new steel ones were hoisted into place. A crew of 100 to 150 men, working 11- hour days, finished construction in just four months. 34 ALLEGHENY NATIONAL FOREST REGION KINZUA SKY WALK

Tracks Across the Sky For generations, freight trains loaded with coal, lumber and oil roared across the Kinzua Viaduct. Later, excursion trains brought sightseers and visiting engineers from around the globe to view the majestic bridge. Since 1963, the bridge has served as the centerpiece of the Kinzua Bridge State Park. The Power of Nature Tornado Strikes July 21, 2003 Bridge designer C.R. Grimm predicted his creation would last 100 years. And he was right. Grimm’s design used roller expansion bearings where the tower legs were anchored to the masonry foundation piers. This design allowed lateral expansion of the tower legs under temperature loading. But his failure to replace the original 1881 anchor bolts would have catastrophic consequences. In July 2003, engineers and skilled bridge builders were hard at work on a $12 million repair project to reinforce the aging structure. The workers decided to call it a day when the sky went black and the winds rushed in. A tornado tore through the forest heading straight for the Viaduct. Hundreds of trees were ripped from their roots and 11 of the bridges 20 towers were lifted, twisted and thrown onto the valley floor. Engineers later confirmed that winds attacked from three directions. The original 1882 anchor blots and collar coupling assemblies, which mated the old bolts to the later 1900 construction, had failed. Within 30 seconds, nature had brought the mighty span to its knees. Overlooks and Trails The Kinzua Sky Walk provides a stunning overlook to view the natural beauty of the Kinzua Gorge. Chances to view wildlife and a wide variety of birds are plentiful. Prime fall foliage season is normally the last two weeks of September and the first two weeks of October. New trails lead visitors to an overlook to view the understructure of the original viaduct and down into the bottom of the gorge to view the twisted massive steel towers that fell during the tornado.
