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.

Since the early days of the Boy Scouts of America, young Scouts have been in the outdoors exploring it’s beauty and all that Mother Nature has to offer. We are very fortunate here in the heart of the Laurel Highlands to have many camps and properties right at our fingertips. Although each facility is different; each has it’s own attractions that make it unique from the others while still providing a quality program to the countless number of Scouts and Scouters who enter each weekend. Dr. E. Urner Goodman the founder of the Order of the Arrow once said “The order is a thing of the Outdoors.” With this statement in mind Wagion Lodge #6 undertook the project to produce this guide and make it available to all units across the council.

  • 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.
