Took my nephew on a short hike to Little Rocky Glen, a small preserve owned by the Countryside Conservancy that protects a 100 foot deep sandstone gorge with cascades, deep pools, and unique potholes carved into bedrock. Also many ferns and hemlocks. The creek is beautiful and is home to trout, kingfishers, herons and egrets. We looked for bugs and sticks. Had a great time.

Nice! When you first mentioned Rocky Glen the first thing I thought of was the old amusement park in Moosic, PA.

I rode my bike right by Ghost town in the Glen yesterday. There's a nice lake there, but all the buildings have been burned down from arson fires.
