The Grand Canyon of Pennsylvania
The straight gray colored streak is the walking trail - made from an old railroad bed. The view here is always spectacular, and in the fall, even more so.
The video was shot in Blackwell, PA (Google Map Link) were the Route 414 bridge crosses Pine Creek.
The first bridge you see is in the video is the railroad bridge that the trail goes over heading south towards the town curiously named 'Jersey Shore'.
The second one, a concrete bridge, is route 414. I apologize for the video production values - I never dreamed I could post it when I recorded it. The Blackwell Inn is a unique place to stay and/or to eat. It is just a few yards up the hill from where the video recording ends.

Love the pic and the video. I know the area well. :)
My parent's go to that Inn all the time when they're staying at their "get-away" house located at Oregon Hill. Zoom in on the map and you'll see it's located on Route 287 just south of Morris. (you can see Monroeton and Towanda on that map too) I've been to this area many times, as you well know.
Very nice post, Iggy. Thank you. (arent those fall colors awesome?)
Alice Kay asked me to add these links:
Little Pine State Park
Pine Creek Trail
More than happy to oblige. :)
I've stayed in the Blackwell 3 or 4 times now - and have eaten there more than that. I'll have to explore Oregon Hill.
Man I miss the autumnal changes....
nice vid!
