RICKETTS GLEN STATE PARK, PA
 



This Memorial Day weekend, we spent 2 days at Ricketts Glen State Park in PA.  It is about a 3 hour drive away in Benton, Pennsylvania.  The park contains 26 miles of hiking trails and 22 waterfalls.  The trails are moderate to strenuous.  In a 3 hour period, we were only able to visit 4 waterfalls due to the strenuous hike and threatening weather...it started to thunder and lightening so we go out of there!   Here's a few shots of the waterfalls.  We were also able to do some mountain biking on some of the easier trails but we later found out that the trails aren't really for biking -- the park ranger saw us but when we asked for directions (not knowing we shouldn't be on the trails with bikes), she informed us that bikes aren't really permitted but they don't enforce it which was nice for us.
