  • National Treasures in PA Backgrounder.Pdf
    Pennsylvania’s National Treasures Nothing captures Pennsylvania’s historic legacy and outdoor splendor like the iconic attractions and national parks spread across the state. In 2016, the parks will become even more magnificent as the National Park Service (NPS) celebrates 100 years. In honor of the Centennial, the NPS launched a program called Find Your Park to encourage travelers to explore everything from iconic battlefields to natural beauty. Pennsylvania’s 18 national parks and 121 state parks boast recreational activities for any season making it the ideal destination to “Find Your Park.” Independence National Historical Park Philadelphia & The Countryside Philadelphia www.nps.gov/inde/index.htm Independence Hall was where the two most important documents in American history were signed - the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. Visitors can see the Assembly Room where these historic documents were crafted, as well as the original courtroom of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court and the iconic Liberty Bell. Gettysburg National Military Park Dutch Country Roads Gettysburg www.nps.gov/gett/index.htm Gettysburg, Pa., was the site of the bloodiest battle of the American Civil War and played an integral part in this nation’s history. The National Park Service Museum and Visitor Center is the perfect place to start your visit and find important resources on touring the battlefield. Learn about the turning point in the Civil War on a tour with a Licensed Battlefield Guide or freely roam the grounds via bus, bike or horseback. Other Gettysburg destinations like Soldier’s National Cemetery, David Wills House and countless other museums will enthrall visitors for hours.

  • EXPANDING and PROTECTING HIKING OPPORTUNITIES in TWENTIETH-CENTURY PENNSYLVANIA Silas Chamberlin
    “TO ENSURE PERMANENCY”: EXPANDING AND PROTECTING HIKING OPPORTUNITIES IN TWENTIETH-CENTURY PENNSYLVANIA Silas Chamberlin Lehigh University n November 1938, a headline buried deep inside the “ Resorts-Travel” section of the New York Times read, “Horseshoe ITrail Open: Bridle-and-Foot Path in Pennsylvania Passes Historic Places.” The article described the character of the new foot and equestrian trail blazed by the Horse Shoe Trail Club of Philadelphia. “Instead of succumbing to the temptation to make the trail easy,” the 116-mile trail followed the “highest ridges” through five southeastern Pennsylvania counties, connecting Valley Forge with the Appalachian Trail at Manada Gap, just outside of Harrisburg. Although reportedly “one of the ‘clean- est’ paths of its type in the country,” the Horse Shoe Trail was “shorter than many another American trail”—a reference to the recently completed Appalachian Trail—and, therefore, “must base its claim to recognition . on the variety of terrain through which it [ran]” and the great number of historic sites it passed. Finally—if natural beauty and historical relevance were not enough—the trail offered good terrain for “enjoying the Southern pennsylvania history: a journal of mid-atlantic studies, vol. 77, no. 2, 2010.

  • Upper Mon River Trail
    Upper Monongahela River Water Trail Map and Guide Water trails are recreational waterways on a lake, river, or ocean between specific locations, containing access points and day-use and/or camping sites for the boating public. Water trails emphasize low-impact use and promote stewardship of the resources. Explore this unique West Virginia and Pennsylvania water trail. For your safety and enjoyment: Always wear a life jacket. Obtain proper instruction in boating skills. Know fishing and boating regulations. Be prepared for river hazards. Carry proper equipment. THE MONONGAHELA RIVER The Monongahela River, locally know as “the Mon,” forms at the confluence of the Tygart and West Fork Rivers in Fairmont West Virginia. It flows north 129 miles to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where it joins the Allegheny River to form the Ohio River. The upper section, which is described in this brochure, extends 68 miles from Fairmont to Maxwell Lock and Dam in Pennsylvania. The Monongahela River formed some 20 million years ago. When pioneers first saw the Mon, there were many places where they could walk across it. The Native American named the river “Monongahela,” which is said to mean “river with crumbling or falling banks.” The Mon is a hard-working river. It moves a large amount of water, sediment, and freight. The average flow at Point Marion is 4,300 cubic feet per second. The elevation on the Upper Mon ranges from 891 feet in Fairmont to 763 feet in the Maxwell Pool. PLANNING A TRIP Trips on the Mon may be solitary and silent, or they may provide encounters with motor boats and water skiers or towboats moving barges of coal or limestone.

  • Friendship Hill U.S
    National Park Service Friendship Hill U.S. Department of the Interior Friendship Hill National Historic Site CHRONOLOGY OF FRIENDSHIP HILL December 23, 1785 Land which was to become Friendship Hill was warranted to Nicholas Blake by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. May 27, 1786 Title to the warrant was sold by Nicholas Blake to Albert Gallatin. 1789-1791 "Brick House" under construction. Gallatin moved into the unfinished house in 1789 with his new bride, Sophia, who tragically died that October. "Frame House" addition constructed to make room for Gallatin's growing family. 1798 Gallatin married Hannah Nicholson in 1793 and their first child, James, was born in 1798. "Stone House" addition completed by Albert Rolaz in preparation for Gallatin's return 1823 from Paris. A year later the "Stone Kitchen" was constructed as the final addition during Gallatin's ownership. May 27-28, 1825 Throngs of people flocked to Friendship Hill to see General Lafayette, who came to visit at Gallatin's invitation. May 26, 1832 Gallatin sold Friendship Hill to Albin Mellier, Jr., another immigrant, who engaged in a number of speculative ventures around New Geneva. 1841 Friendship Hill visited by Sherman Day, a compiler of county histories, whose sketch (above) is the earliest known illustration of the main house. March 15, 1843 Friendship Hill sold at sheriffs sale to Charles and Frederick Tennig, Mellier's creditors. September 27, 1858 Friendship Hill conveyed by Tennig's to Mellier's heirs (Amadee Adelaide and Marie Mellier). July 8, 1859 Friendship Hill sold by Mellier's heirs to John Littleton Dawson, local congressman, who later became noted for his sponsorship of the earliest version of what became the Homestead Act of 1863.

Friendship Hill was the home of Albert Gallatin, the longest-serving Secretary of Treasury, US Congressman, and ambassador to France and Great Britain. This estate is open to the public and has several miles of hiking trails to enjoy. After touring the house and walking the grounds, meet at the picnic area to enjoy your lunch. The leader will be issued garbage bags since there are no garbage cans at the Historic Site. You will have to bring the trash back to camp with you. After lunch, at 1:00 p.m. the group will drive to Fort Necessity (about a 40 minute drive). This is the site where the French and Indian War began. View the movie about the history of the site, tour the visitor center museum, then walk out to the fort. This site also has several miles of hiking trails. Visit the Washington Inn while you are on-site and see what an 18th Century Inn looks like. Please note that there are no garbage cans here either. All trash must be brought back to camp. Bring: Trash bags, drinking water (there is a limited selection of beverages available for purchase at the gift shops for both sites), insect repellant, sunscreen, hat, hiking shoes, lunch.
