Canyon Waterfall Geology Hike: Pre-Registration is Required
2024-04-13 09:00 - 13:00 | Darling Run Access Area, State Route 362, Wellsboro, PA, 16901, United States
Encore! Please note, this is a repeat of the same hike and excellent information provided on the last hike.
Explore the waterfalls along the lower Turkey Path on your quest to unlock the geologic secrets of the PA Grand Canyon. The one-mile round trip hike up about 400 vertical feet (half way) of the trail will be led by both park staff and professional geologists from DNCR’s Bureau of Geological Survey. The hike begins at the base of the canyon, where the Lock Haven Formation is exposed. These rocks were deposited approximately 380 million years ago as sediment on the edge of an ancient sea and contain fossils of marine organisms. As the hike progresses, the exposed rock will be progressively younger and transition into the shoreline and alluvial plane deposits of the Catskill Formation, effectively transporting participants through time and space of the geologic history of the gorge.
This program is well-suited for those curious about the ancient past of the gorge and those willing and able to complete the moderately strenuous hike. Registrants should meet by 9am in the Darling Run parking lot for the Pine Creek Trail (rail trail), be bussed approximately 3.5 miles to the base of the trail below Leonard Harrison State Park where the program will begin. After a brief introduction, the group will climb slowly, learning along the way to a point about ½ way up the path and near the upper waterfall. Participants should wear proper footwear and layered clothing for the hike. A small backpack, water and snacks are also encouraged. Those interested should register online, https://events.dcnr.pa.gov/event/canyon_waterfall_geology_hike_974 or by calling 570-724-3061. Spaces are limited and the deadline to register is Tuesday April 9th. In the event of inclement weather, this program may be cancelled.

Annual Earth Day @ Mill Cove Environmental Center - CANCELLED
2024-04-20 10:00 - 16:00 | Mill Cove Environmental Center, 2317 Mill Creek Rd, Tioga, PA, 16946, United States
On Monday, April 15, 2024, Mill Cove, Inc. announced that their Earth Day event planned for Saturday, April 20, 2024, has been canceled due to the current very wet conditions at the Mill Cove Environmental Area.

Last week’s rainy weather and the forecast of more rain this week will prevent the organization from being able to prepare the area for the event.

Mill Cove Inc., is very disappointed that they had to make this decision. It was noted by the group that the area is open, however, they remind people to use caution on the roadway especially at the lower end as it is extremely muddy.

The organization will be contacting vendors and exhibitors through email and will follow up with phone calls so that everyone receives notification of the event cancellation.

The dedication of the Charles E. Fox Pavilion will be rescheduled for the annual meeting this summer.
