Historically speaking, Pine Grove furnace State Park Mark the exact Midway point of the Appalachian Trail for many many years until it was expanded upon. Laurel Lake is contained in the park, and it is in the middle of Machaux State Forest. needless to say, it is quite an intense Journey when we arrived.
And there was a freshwater spring! |
When we arrived, my friend and I were immediately taken aback by the view of the Waterfront Dam. It was beautiful.
It churns several hundred gallons of fresh water every day. |
Pole steppe was a 1.5 mile trail near the side of the Appalachian Trail that intersected with Pine Grove furnace. Of course, which is the most difficult., set our eyes for the Stars, and while star Cavs were crying and Agony the entire time, we enjoyed quite a perilous hike.
Honestly, this hike was probably closer to a 6.5.out of 10. this was because I chose the harder path which involve climbing 50 feet up the side of a mountain to get to the highest point in the park. There was no let-up from the Switchback, as I was a straight shot up a hill for the entirety of the hike. admittedly, The View from here was better than the view from the highest point in the state, which I talked about here. Is absolutely something that I would recommend friends.
The view, though? Worth it. |
