This is a hiking area about ten miles from town with old growth trees, some at least 110 feet tall as estimated by my stride length against that fallen tree. The pictures do not convey the majesty of the canopy as compared to the rest of the woods in Pennsylvania, which must have been a remarkable place when our ancestors arrived. Even in their limited scope, these twenty acres give the impression of being among redwoods or sequoias when viewed alongside the remaining forest. We do not hike here too often because of time constraints, but it is worth a look for anyone contemplating a visit.
