: 1 you think you must take off
for the Pacific Coast, or fly the At-
Jantic in search of scenery, relax.
You can find it within a stone's
throw of home.
‘Scenery that is not too demand-
ne not too breath-taking, the kind
of scenery that leaves you filled
with the wonder of a winter safely
past and new life springing in every
‘rushing brook and every budding
‘branch:
Many residents of Dallas take the
round trip to State University as a
matter of course, unmindful of the
‘mountains.
¢ They can make the 120 miles to
St HE, they say, in two and a half
hours, which isi indeed possible if
there is no traffic or if the State
Police are not on patrol, if the speed
gones are ignored, or if they are
rocketing to a given destination
without regard to what lies all about
them, ignored because of familiarity.
{| Have they stopped for a moment
at Ricketts Glen instead of hurtl-
ing across the bridge and away
again on Route 1187?
‘Have they ever really seen these
falls ?
They are easy to miss, concealed
in the ravine below. Once you have
parked and scrambled down the
rocky path, they are yours forever.
The path is steep. You do well to
wear. moccasing or sneakers, if you
expect to walk out on the big rock
at the first level and look back
at the water tumbling over the
brink under the bridge, or down at
the swirling torrent below.
5 Jo place where Route 118
the road to Benton diverge, you
have the choice of routes. You can
go ‘straight as an arrow over the
“new” road that leads to William-
sport, or you can drop down by
Benign, where fishermen are stand-
ing®Mip to their waists in the cold
mountain water, and other fisher-
men line the banks.
© Go slowly here for cars are park-
ed, and children dart across the
road.
The lilacs are in bloom, just as
they are in Dallas, some of the
bushes dating from the times of the
pioneers. This is an old ‘and fertile
valley, where time stands still.
Up a long and winding hill, with
‘the young green of the forested
mountain sides and the white clouds
of the dogwood, ignoring the main
road to Bloomsburg and Danville
Milton and a turn to the left
along the banks of the Susquehan-
na.
Bucknell, another old world town,
across the bridge, route 45 plunging
into a placid countryside where bug-
gies and farm wagons move sedately
| on the highway, the bearded Amish
‘pursuing their own reflections and
their own way of life as the world
flashes by in high powered cars.
And here is Bald Eagle State For-
est, easier to travel than it was be-
fore the road was widened and pav-
ed. No roadside signs, no roadside
stands. Up and up and up through
the silence of the mountains.
A picnic area, rustic and inviting.
The thin scent of woodsmoke ming-
ling with the pine.
And on the other side of the
mountain, emerging again into ev-
eryday life, Woodward Inn, caught |
up in a flurry of road building and
expanding frontiers of its once
sleepy village, but holding its own
as a reminder that it was once a
place where stage-coaches dis-
charged their weary passengers.
It was built in 1814, shortly after
the War of 1812. There is still an
old - world hospitality within its
heavy walls, good food, unhurried
service. A good place to stop for a
mid-morning cup of coffee or for
lunch.
On again, and the valley widens
out, the receding mountains now no
more than hills.
State University and the beauti-
ful campus. Nittany Lion Inn, its
atmosphere retained in spite of ne-
cessary additions.
Take the other way back, through
Lock Haven, with a short side trip
to Woolrich, to see where the fa-
mous plaid wool shirts for hunters
and outdoor men are made.
On through Williamsport, follow-
ing the winding of the West Branch
of the Susquehanna.
After Montoursville the route
swings to ‘the left just beyond a
big stock barn, and traffic thins to
Hughesville.
And here, a sign of home, route
118, newly born.
The road from Hughesville
through Lairdsville was once some-
thing which challenged’ the horse-
power of any engine, but now ‘the
two ridges have been conquered,
and the grade is easy, up and down
and up and down, with fat farms
falling away beneath.
Farm tractors like bumbling yel-
low beetles turn the rich earth far
below, and incredibly green pasture
land, steeply sloping, is scissored
out of the darker green of the
forest.
From above, it is like looking
down at the checkerboard from an
airplane.
Lairdsville, which used to be ap-
approached by a narrow winding
road, is here before you know it,
after that final swoop down the
ridge, its spired church the familiar
landmark.
And after Lairdsville, the Endless
Mountains, tamed now by the mir-
acle of engineering, crest after crest,
scars along the roadside healed by
the fresh green of spring.
Dogwood everywhere.
Black bears watching silently, in-
visible. There are hundreds of them
