The Sleeping Giant...




thanks to : The Snowbelt Parson over at The Allegheny Journal, I have the most wonderful camping spot in the Minister Creek / Fools Run Area!
Today we spent the afternoon seeking this spot, and we found it! My husband and daughter loved it!
We will enjoy our stay here!
I found a grilling fork, a votive and an earlier find by a friend...
The rock city located here is very nice. I will have quite a bit of exploring to do!
There are some wonderful hikes nearby, and a cozy rock shelter to call our own for a few days.
This little guy/ girl was hiding among the ferns here! S/he was fluttering and sounded like a little helicopter... :)
Very sweet. I am enamored with the forest. I've spent very little quality time under the great canopy since I was a child. In some ways, it's like
going home. The adventurousness that I had forgotten is back, and my kids and husband are all for it! All because of a bicycle. Below is the gate at the beginning of the hike to Sleeping Giant...
it's coordinates are: N 41* 37' 52.3" W 079* 19' 05.6" (41.631194 -79.151556). For more detailed directions, Head on over to the Allegheny Journal.
