At an overlook of the meeting of these two rivers, natural history gives way to human history. On May 21, 1754, George Washington camped on the point of land between the rivers while searching for a route LONG from tidewater on Chesapeake Bay to the forks of the Ohio. The trip was part military and part speculation. Col. Washington was looking to oust the French from the Forks of the Ohio. Businessman Washington was looking for a route for NATURE goods to flow from the East Coast to the new American wilderness. Near Harnedsville, around Mile 58, is another great location for spring wildflowers. Trillium, yellow trout lily, Dutchman’s breeches, violets and more TRAIL are abundant here in April and May. Late summer brings the mountain bugbane, a rare plant of the Alleghenies, into bloom. Six miles south of Ohiopyle, the Great Allegheny Passage comes out of the woods and into a large meadow that was once a farm.

The leads off to the west. This is the water gap of the Yough River through Laurel Horn is a huge bend in the Casselman River where the water encountered a Ridge -- the deepest water gap in Pennsylvania. The summit of Laurel Ridge is very hard ledge of rock and was forced to take a circuitous route. 1,200 feet higher than the trail. Compare that to the famous “Grand Canyon of Pennsylvania” at Wellsboro, which is a mere 800 feet deep. The old railroad path crosses the Pinkerton High Bridge with the river far below. The views from this location are exceptional, especially in the fall. After crossing Just a mile or two further south is a limestone outcrop, Finnegan’s Ledges. the High Bridge directly ahead is the Pinkerton Tunnel and just beyond that the Spring wildflowers are bountiful here with tufts of wild columbine growing Pinkerton Low Bridge.

The Passage then was routed to follow the path of the river for 1.3 miles around the Horn, ending up at the other end of the closed tunnel and the Pinkerton Low Bridge. The river at the Low Bridge is less than 20 feet below deck. When compared to the High Bridge, you get a graphic illustration of the steep fall of the rivers in this region. At Meyersdale, the Passage leaves the Casselman River and follows the smaller Flaugherty Creek. The higher up the watershed, the smaller the streams and from Meyersdale, the eight miles to Deal, bring you to the top of all watersheds.

Just southeast of Deal is the Eastern Continental Divide. A low ridge divides the run-off of the Mississippi watershed from that of the Potomac watershed. Spill part of your water bottle on one side of the divide and it will flow to the Gulf of Mexico and a spill on the other side will reach the Chesapeake Bay.

For cyclists, it’s less about water and more about hills. Either direction from here is all downhill.

Just beyond the southeast portal of the Big Savage Tunnel is a vista of the edge of what geographers call the Ridge and Valley Province. It’s part of the Appalachian Mountains, some of the oldest mountains in the world. From tiny wildflowers to towering tulip poplars, from extinct saber-tooth cats to scurrying chipmunks, from ancient rocks to new landslides, the Great Allegheny Passage covers them all. It’s pretty clear why it can be called one LONG nature trail.

OFF TO CAMP

You never know who you may see at Training Camp, last year; fans saw former STEELERS Denver Broncos Coach Mike Shanahan on the sidelines. As Sport’s Illustrated’s Peter King reported, Coach Shanahan said, “You look at things that are important for a franchise, and continuity is right up there. They’ve had three coaches [since 1969], and what teams have been more successful? No one. TRAINING The whole staff’s been intact on defense, I think for six years or more. They’ve CAMP won six Super Bowls.” (Continued on Page 42)

Have you ever wondered how big “Big Ben” Roethlisberger – 2009 Super Bowl Champion Pittsburgh Steeler Quarterback really is? Come to the Laurel Highlands this summer and see Ben, his team mates and Coach Tomlin close up as your family’s own game of touch football during Summer Training Camp on the campus of Saint Vincent College, Latrobe. Beginning the end of July through mid-August, the most storied franchise in the National Football League offers Steelers Nation an unforgettable fan experience for free. Plan on getting there early so you get a spot on the hillside overlooking the practice fields or in the new bleachers named after long-time Coach Chuck Knoll. Most open practices are held 3:00 – 5:00 PM. Most players are generous with their time and will sign autographs before

and after practice on their way back to the dorm. Helfferich Joshua Credit: Photo
