  • Quehanna Trail
    Quehanna Trail – Lost Run Road to Wild Cat Rocks This moss covered trail through the forest is lined with rhododendrons that give way to mountain laurel and again to an open forest floor covered with high grasses and brush. It would be most scenic during June thru early July when the rhodies and mountain laurel are in bloom or the fall with the changing leaves. It follows along the ridge of the plateau between Lost Run Road and Mosquito Creek. It’s a gentle rolling path that becomes rocky in several places so definitely not conducive to flipflops. It could be traversed in a good pair of walking shoes but we were most comfortable in our hiking boots…and a walking staff is not necessary. It is an in and out trail so only requires one vehicle. Difficulty Level: Easy Distance: 4 Miles out to the 5th Vista (last vista before the sharp drop in elevation to where Mosquito Creek converges with Gifford Run at the Corporation Dam) Elevation Change: 50 – 100 ‘ Directions: From the Wapiti Woods entrance, turn right onto Rt 555 E for 1.4 miles. Turn right onto the Quehanna Highway. Go 13.3 miles and turn right onto Reactor Rd/Lost Run Rd. Go 1 mile and the road will “Y” at a gate. Bear right, continuing on Lost Run Rd. Go 2.1 miles down into the valley where you’ll cross Mosquito Creek at the Blackwell Splash Dam. Climb back out of the valley through a Rhododendron lined switch back for another 1.3 miles to the trail marker on your left.

  • PRIMITIVE CAMPING in Pennsylvania State Parks and Forests 11/2014
    PRIMITIVE CAMPING in Pennsylvania State Parks and Forests 11/2014 What is Primitive Camping? Primitive camping is a simplistic style of camping. Campers hike, pedal or paddle to reach a location and spend the night without the presence of developed facilities. This primitive camping experience takes place off the beaten path, where piped water, restrooms and other amenities are not provided. You pack in all you need, exchanging a few conveniences for the solitude found in the back country setting. Fresh air, fewer people and out-of-the-way natural landscapes are some of the benefits of primitive camping. Once off the beaten path, however, additional advantages begin to surface such as a deeper awareness and greater appreciation of the outdoor world around you. Primitive camping also builds outdoor skills and fosters a gratifying sense of self-sufficiency. Where to Camp Pennsylvania has 2.2 million acres of state forest land with 2,500 miles of trails and 5,132 miles of Camping at rivers and streams winding through it. Hiking, biking and multi-use trails traverse most state forest districts and six districts have designated water trails that transect state forest land. Forest Districts State parks are not open to primitive camping. However, with the exception of William Penn State Forest, all state forest districts are open to this activity. Camping is not permitted in designated STATE FOREST DISTRICTS: natural areas or at vistas, trail heads, picnic areas and areas that are posted closed to camping. Bald Eagle State Forest (570) 922-3344 Contact a forest district office for specific information, maps and Camping Permits (if needed).

  • FALL FOLIAGE REPORT October 1 – October 7, 2020
    Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources Bureau of Forestry PENNSYLVANIA WEEKLY FALL FOLIAGE REPORT October 1 – October 7, 2020 TIOGA CAMERON BRADFORD To predict peak season from the colors, use these guidelines: ➢ Dark Green/No Change= peak is three weeks to a month away ➢ Light Green/Starting to Change= peak is approximately two to three weeks away ➢ Yellow/Approaching Best Color= peak is approximately one week away ➢ Orange/Best Color= foliage is peaking this week ➢ Red/Starting to Fade= still some nice color but won’t last more than a few more days ➢ Brown/Past Peak= all or nearly all color is gone Statewide Fall Foliage Overview What a difference a week makes! Cold and frosty nights and very dry conditions have ushered in marked changes across the northern tier, where foliage is at its spectacular peak. Sugar and red maples are the stars of the show, contrasting beautifully with the still-green oak canopies. Another cold snap could jumpstart much of the Appalachian and Allegheny mountain regions, setting the table for back to back weeks of fantastic fall foliage viewing opportunities across wide swaths of the commonwealth. Northwestern Region The district manager in Cornplanter State Forest District (Warren, Erie counties) reports that cooler nights have spurred fall colors in northwest Pennsylvania. Many oaks are still quite green, but maples (sugar and red) are displaying brilliant colors. Aspen, hickory, and birch are continuing to color the landscape with warm yellow hues. Route 6 to Chapman State Park is a recommended fall foliage corridor in Warren County. Exciting fall color can be found at Chapman State Park.
