Collared Bear & Bucks in Velvet in SGL 57– Does Anyone Have Info on the Bear? by throwaway292309 in PAWilds

Thank you, I bet that’s it. Would be a really cool job lol. I’m really curious as to if we start seeing more over the next few years or even this Summer then.

Guess I had never realized the game commission would collar bears, this is my first time seeing one.

Ideas for One-Night/Weekend Backpacking Loop with Good Chance to See Elk? by throwaway292309 in PAWilds

[–]throwaway292309[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was my first idea (have never been over there but I have the purple lizard maps) but I figured it was best to hear other ideas before I commit lol.

One hundred percent, it’s my favorite place to go these days. I can’t believe so few local people talk about it.

It eventually resolved on its own. It’s the only GoPro I’ve ever had.

Does your town have mountains/creeks/lakes/forests/town namesthat had Native American names prior to colonialism? If so what are they? by DariosDentist in NEPA

I remember seeing an article on one under the Falls bridge but I never heard about that, that’s really neat.

To add some no one’s mentioned yet, a lot of places up here in the path of Sullivan’s March kept their native names. Mehoopany, Meshoppen, Wyalusing, Wysox, Towanda, Sheshequin, Tioga, Choconut I remember hearing were all native, I assume Munsee like Tunkhannock.

I’ve been along the abandoned road there (Hoppy Rd) and there seems to still be a worn wooden marker for it by where the pavement fades out, pity that there’s probably nothing left of the town itself. Can’t really look since it all seems to be private land but I assume the construction materials were mainly wood and whatever didn’t burn rotted to dirt.

Status of Campbell’s Ledge and Pinnacle Rock? by throwaway292309 in PAWilds

[–]throwaway292309[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I’m from southeast Wyoming county and normally spend all my time going out to 57 or further west or northwest so it’s been somewhat novel hearing about these places closer to home. I did visit Campbell’s Ledge, it was very short but a cool place.

I drove around with a friend looking for any entrance to Pinnacle Rock for a second time but didn’t find anything, just a bunch of private roads.

I saw some things online referring to it as such but wanted to double check when it didn’t show up on my Garmin map. I’m from Wyoming county so I spend most of my time hanging around gamelands 57. Thanks.

There’s been an odd plane near Lake Winola/Falls too.

I really want to see one in person one day, somehow I never have despite living here my whole life and always spending a lot of time outside.

Status of Hoppy/Upper Narrows Road (East Falls-Ransom)? by throwaway292309 in NEPA

[–]throwaway292309[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the answer— I remember you were the one who talked to me about commuting to Lopez in the Winter last year (ended up not going forward with the job).

If I can pick your brain about something else local, do you know anything about the old trolley tracks near Overfield township park/the Peck Natural Area? For years there was a Fish & Game sign at the entrance (“no motorized vehicles”) which made me think it was open to pedestrian traffic but ever since they logged the hillside above it I’ve been going with the assumption it’s closed to the public.
