This channel sticker has been found!
I made it there at about 4 pm today and it was gone.
It would be so cool if people would replace the sticker with another small prize, kinda like geocachers do. I can't hike anymore but I think that would be fun.
This is my favorite place to go since I was 3 or 4 years old, I’m now 72 and still go for a week twice a year. I’m thankful that my kids, and now my grandkids love it just as much as I do. There’s so much more than what we saw here, many more great trails, the fire tower built in 1929 no longer in use by the forest service but which you can still climb for an outstanding view, the beautiful Clarion River which is one of the most scenic in PA. I take the grandkids hiking, horseback trail riding through the forest, canoeing and fishing on the Clarion, and even throw in some go karts and water slide. Thanks for doing this one. 👍🏼
My favorite also. The old growth forest. As you say something about the feel in those areas! Thanks for sharing.👍🙂🙏
Cook forest was beautiful back in the mid 90's when I was last there and camped for 2 weeks!
One of the great places in PA. Always loved going there.
I feel so grateful that this precious stand of magnificent trees were saved from the axe. Thanks for sharing this beautiful hike. Your awe and appreciation of this literal cathedral of old growth is something I can relate to very strongly. I like to imagine when millions of acres of PA forest looked like this... Awesome video, Woodsman, a very truly special place...
Beautiful video, haven't been able to walk those trails myself for awhile. Thank you for taking me home again. Hint for any future hikes here, come about a week earlier and those woods will be full of mountain laurel.
All I can say is beautiful! And your right, video don’t do justice for some places.
Wow - this was RIGHT up our alley! Trees are so awesome, the older, the bigger, the better! There is something so very calming about these tall giants, and the stories they could tell! Thanks for the relaxing stroll! Keep making memories & adventure on! ~Karen & Shannon WOY
I have hiked at Cook Forest many times, but never without other folks. You are lucky for the peaceful hike. Thank you Cliff, for taking folks to this wonderful forest.
looks like a tornado unscrewed that tree from the ground at 4 minutes. Impressive logs along the way.
Excellent video my kind of place also
I was there last summer when I went to visit family it's quite different from here in Airzona. Very beautiful place.
I fell in love with Cook Forest State Park this year and ended up camping in Ridge Campground there for six days in mid-June and four days around July 4th weekend, hiking and photographing on various trails. The blowdown area from 1956 at the top of the Longfellow Trail is incredible at dusk. It gets so quiet up there except for the wind rustling the leaves. The Bear Trail is pretty great too though much flatter and you will see more Beech trees on that trail. My next trip probably during Labor Day weekend I will be taking on the Rhododendron Trail from the Forest Drive on down through the valley and back up again.
Just WOW Cliff, such an amazingly beautiful forest, I've seen the beaches in Alabama, Florida, North Carolina, mountains in Chattanooga Tennessee, however I just can't get over how beautiful Pennsylvania is, I will never make it to see this beautiful land, however thanks to your videos I will see it in my dreams, thank you so very much for sharing this beautiful part of our world
I LOVE Cook Forest! We went as a family every summer from the year I was born until the year I turned 13. I've been back many times since, the latest of which was in May of 2021. I'd actually like to move there one day - perhaps sooner than later.
Oh my gosh !!!!?!?! How beautiful, what a video, I’ll be watching all of these this winter !!!!! Over and over , thx
I was going to Elkland Pa on Rt49 . I had just crossed the Cowanesque River at the west end of Cowanesque Lake. There was a hiker walking East bound , following most likely The Mid State Trail . He looked a lot like you . But he had a pair of large sunglasses on. He waved and I waved back. If it was somebody that watches your videos , let me know.
Definitely I agree the video doesn't do the tree's size justice. There is also a old growth stand near the fire tower.
Thanks for sharing park visitors numbers seem down this year for sure.
The Tv show ' Barnwood Builders" was in Brookville taking down a old barn, and did a short clip on Cook Forest!
Thank You bringing us along on that beautiful hike. I love Cook Forest!
There is a real nice area near the fire tower too
Welcome to my neck of the woods. Love watching your channel.
PA has so many State forests, parks, and Allegheny National Forest that are inspirational, peaceful and visual. Thank you for the journey.
as always thank you for taking us along on this hike/
I love the Longfellow trail. Many fond memories. As a teen my friends and I used to run up and back down the Senaca trail that goes up to the fire Tower from the end of the rt 36 bridge heading into the park. Oh to be that young again...
Great vid
Now that was a beautiful place Cliff. I’m a great lover of trees 🌲 they are all so big and awesome. Just loved them. Thanks for taking me along. Please stay safe and take care
Nice hike. I think you need to take us kayaking again.
Hello FRIEND GOOD evening greatting FROM INDONESIA
THANK you for BEAUTIFUL.and Amazing SHARING
I have really been enjoying the recent vlogs so much. It’s such a beautiful time of year ❤️🌳
This is my favorite place to camp in Pa. It is very beautiful. So glad you finally visited this park.
Beautiful 🥰 I love the name you gave this video 🌹
Hi Cliff, what a beautiful, peaceful area for a hike, those giants were pretty amazing and they must have
been stunning up close. Thank you for sharing, much love. xx 🌲❤
Lovely old forest, perfect day to explore. Thank you.
You should of been there 10 years ago before the giants trees started to die . Sad 😥 what's happening to the trees that are over 200 years old . I counted the rings in one the fell across the trail from a storm and they cut a section out at the trail 240 rings that's 1780 it started to grow .
Love old growth forests! Nice being the only one there. Nature can be rough, that 4 acres damaged, ugh. Great video as always!
wish i was camping there!!! love cook forest.
Some very huge trees, but how do you explain how straight they grow? Enjoyed your hike.
Favorite place.
the wooly adelgid destroyed ALL the Hemlocks in the Shenandoah. 😥
So beautiful up there. The only thing that concerns me is all the downed trees. If a forest fire ever got started it would be a terrible fire with all the fuel laying on the forest floor.
👍✌🖖🕯🦋🌠🌻🙂👋👣. Love,respect and positivity always.
Lol. Cook forest, Tom's run.
There's *no way* I can't claim some sort of ownership here.
Born and raised in PA, too I should add.
I think they close those trails whenever bigfoot was reported in the area... 🤪😟
Carcass:
The body of a dead animal.
The body of a slaughtered animal, stripped of unwanted viscera, etc.
The body of a dead human, a corpse.
The framework of a structure, especially one not normally seen.
An early incendiary ship-to-ship projectile consisting of an iron shell filled with saltpetre, sulphur, resin, turpentine, antimony and tallow with vents for flame.
I never heard of a dead tree carcass...
The handicap fishing spot is perfect to leave a sticker. What if a turtle or snake is living in a hole? It is scary how you hide your surprises! Be careful!
I went to look for the sticker and flashlight early this morning and someone already found it 😞
Sorry, someone was there at 7:30 in the morning already.
That was great seeing those huge trees. I was wondering why the yellow wording on the information sign used the word Cyclone instead of Hurricane. Cyclones are in the West/Pacific while Hurricanes are here in the Eastern Atlantic area. Just an observation, person that worded it was from the Western/Pacific area perhaps? Noting all the downed tree Cliff I was wondering if, while you are camping out anywhere, you're not worried/apprehensive/concerned while sleeping especially if a thunder storm rolls in at 3 AM? I know I would be. Thank you for this video, one of your best but I enjoy them all.

The term cyclone means system of winds rotating inward to an area of low atmospheric pressure.
There are 4 types of cyclones:
Tropical cyclone.
Polar cyclone.
.Mesocyclone
Extratropical cyclone.
You were talking about the topical cyclones
Hurricanes form over the North Atlantic Ocean and Northeast Pacific.
Cyclones are formed over the South Pacific and Indian Ocean.
Typhoons are formed over the Northwest Pacific Ocean.
The sign is referring to the mesocyclone type. These types of cyclones are tornadoes, dust devels, and water spouts.
I agree the sign at 16:40 is confusing. Not sure why "tornado" was not used. Thinking that National Weather Service could not verify it was a tornado.
If I worried about every possible thing that could happen to me...I would never go anywhere or do anything.
@@thewanderingwoodsman7227 I thought about it when I saw this on CNN This past week. --"A 7-year-old girl from Georgia camping with her family in Great Smoky Mountains National Park was killed Wednesday when a tree fell on their campsite, park officials said". Be safe out there.
@@jayforkner2692 Thanks Jay, my education continues.
