Looove the one with ther rocks! I'd love to run up to the top of the highest rock and stand there. There is a very similar stand of rocks up at Stoney point. (Just across Tionesta Creek behind Kelletsville.) It's one of my favorites places to hike. There is a lot of black bears there, but I have never got to see one. (Maybe that's good! LOL!) -Bob
"Traipse". That's gotta be a Western PA word. Like "jagger" or "poke". LOL!
The idea is to SEE a bear. Not run 'em off. :-)
Apparently I am so noisy, they run away before I can ever get close to see one. I am not noted for walking through the woods like an indian. I probably sound like an elephant coming through the forest....knocking down trees, and crunching tree limbs, etc. hehe
LOL. I do say 'traipse' and 'jagger' and 'krik' and 'gum band,' but I don't say 'poke.' Oh, and I say 'pop' instead of 'soda;' used to drive my Philly area college roommate crazy . . . My dad used to say 'babushka' instead of 'scarf.' He also said 'warsh' your hands :)
I'm sure you mosey about the woods on little cat feet--I'm surprised you haven't seen DOZENS of bears.
What!!??!! "Traipse" isn't a real word? I love that word! Phew...I found it: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/traipse
Then again, "like" is a real word, and it makes me sound stupid all the time...*sigh* Yes, I'm blaming it on the word, not on my own inability to code switch. ;)

Those rocks are above Bottom Creek Road between Craigsville and Hindman Hill Road. Aren't they cool?
If you're gonna traipse around in bear country, you should take a dog or wear a bell--or, better yet, bell the dog :)
