Smack in the middle of PA, Clinton & Centre counties, take your pick. There’s a spot where the east & west branches of the Susquehanna R come together (or split apart, if you like) where you’re surrounded on all sides by the forest-covered Appalachians, and other than a railroad line for coal trains, there’s pretty much nothing whatsoever for miles around….'cept the river, that is. The water is so clear and runs so fast, you can see the massive boulders that eroded & fell form the mountainsides over the millennia and now make up the bed of the river from your canoe. There’re isolated hunting camps & cabins out there but there isn’t anyone in 'em most of the year.
Just amazing to be in the center of the state, with clear air to see the stars, wildlife around that isn’t much scared of you, and all that silence. Not a traffic sound to be heard. Gotta love that.
