    I love the lower part of that trail. The river and falls are awesome but I've seen some of the most beautiful copperhead and other snakes through there. I think I've only been there once that I didn't see at least one snake. I was waiting through this video in hopes that you would get to see at least one. Cucumber falls is awesome in it's own way also. Not real big but definitely worth going to see!

    "Yuck - i -gain - ey" for how to pronounce the River name. My friend in Greensburg, PA told me how to say it when I was planning my trip in that area in 2017. Cucumber Falls I believe is that waterfall you are referencing. Can't wait to go back for another visit.

    I do Youghigheny River shore line hiking, bouldering and the rough hiking along the river shore, starting at the "slides" and head to the Cucumber Falls, cross the stream and keep going down stream to the "high bridge". YOCK - A - GAIN - EE.
    I'm specializing in the Ohiopyle potholes. I got a playlist of them on RUclips.

    Cliff, I don't know how far away from this it is (Confluence, PA?), but you should visit Youghiogheny River Lake where the former town of Somerfield used to be. I saw video footage and read about The Great Crossings Bridge (built around 1815?), an old three-arched bridge from the National Road that was submerged in the 1940's when the dam was built. You can see part of the bridge when the water level is low along with remnants of Somerfield, so you have to go at the right time. This would be awesome to see!

    I have rafted there with my family - terrible experience as we chose the cheap option of having "available guides." Three out of five of us fell out. I was the only experienced rafter & I had laryngitis at the time. My three daughters were young and now say they wouldn't go rafting again. Take my word for it and pay extra to have a guide in the raft with you. People have died rafting there.

    Youghiogheny is pronounced Yoka ('o' as in dock) gainy (like 'rainy'). I guess that's why most call it the Yough (not yo or yuff... haha)

    You should have walked north on the GAP trail to the river valley overlook going across the old train bridge. It’s only about a half a mile north of the parking lot. Be careful where you place your stickers, Ohio Pyle is known for rattlesnakes. And I have to say that I think that was a poor choice.

    I appreciate your video. But leave no trace doesn’t just refer to trash. Not to be that guy, leaving something in the woods that doesn’t belong there to promote a RUclips channel kind of goes against the whole leave no trace philosophy.
