The Pennsylvania Rocky Ridge Natural Area looks like a hidden gem, full of breathtaking landscapes and endless exploration opportunities. Every corner seems to reveal something new and beautiful. I enjoy following your adventures and discovering these incredible places with you. 💖
that was another great hike, Dave. What I find so wild is how some of those huge boulders sit up there balanced on smaller rocks and have been there for so many years. It's really cool. Dwayne I think my favorite Dylan song is positively 4th street
I’ve never heard of this area before! Rocky Ridge looks like a fun areas to explore! I’ve been seeing a lot of use of the Purple Lizard maps. I may need to invest in a set for PA! Great Video Dave!
It's a fun area to explore! I love using those maps! Purple Lizard maps are the best. Fun to just look at the maps and plot out an adventure. Thanks for watching and commenting. God bless 👍 🙂🙏
This is one of my favorite places and memories with my son. We camp at motorized campsite 7 often, and hike up to these rocks and hang out with the views and the solitude. Such a great area. You got me wanting to take a lunch for a walk and just enjoy some time in the forest. Thanks for what you do for all of us viewers. Your such a great inspiration to get out and a great resource for when we cant. God bless and hope to see you soon.
This definitely looks like an amazing area and one I will have to consider for a future hike myself since I absolutely love rocky areas with interesting formations. Cooper's rock near Morgantown WV is like this. Thanks again Dave for sharing your treks with us. 🙂
And yes Dave I happen to be one of those that can’t make these adventures because of a hip replacement that went wrong I’m so happy because of you taking me along I get to enjoy being out there. Thank you so much for doing this Dave It is much appreciated. God bless you
Great reasons why you do what you do! I appreciate all your excursions and you crack me up! Sink holes are caused by space underneath all those rocks shifting down. Found usually on narrow ridges. Happy New Year!
I can do it to Dave think God.I had the flu for almost a month.Because when I would get better .Id go to the mountains again .But I finally got over it thank God.
Loved those crazy rocks - especially that last purple lizard group with the tunnel underneath. I'm glad you didn't miss that view. I had to look up Bob Dylan songs to see if there was any that I liked better than "Rolling Stone". The only other one that comes close for me is "Blowin' in the Wind" I'm not really the greatest Bob Dylan fan. 🤣 The sink holes were kind of odd too. I enjoyed your explanation of why you do what you do. It's good that you appreciate your health. I'm so thankful that I still have good health too. It's not something to take for granted. Everything else in life pretty much hinges on how healthy you are. 🙂🌲🌲🌨❄☃🏔🥶🌲🌲🥾
You may like that song but you are not a complete unknown with us. You may be on your own when hiking but not really as you know you never walk alone. It is great that you are getting out , as the more active you are the longer you stay active ,no matter what your age. I see snow is still scarce in PA. Lucky you.
All those holes kind of look like the holes left when large trees have fallen. Not 100% sure. Kind of looks like maybe there were once some very large trees there. Possible microburst or tornado came through and knocked a bunch over being all in the same general area like that. I could be completely wrong though. Still neat to see all them holes.
@@grillinandchillinwithdeb Always have first aid kit. Knife, flashlight, snacks and water. First aid kit has normal stuff plus a water filter and emergency blanket and rain poncho. Not sure that answer your question. Also Cell Phone
That is the three sisters! There is a Rocky Ridge Park in York county that can be confused with this place. I live in Mifflin County which is where part of the Rothrock State Forest is. Hope to see you sometime Dave! Great videos...love the channel....just a suggestion....but you could save yourself time if you didn't use all the transitions between the scenes...i didn't see as many in this video as in the past.. honestly it just makes it harder to watch....and I'm sure it's more work....but love the channel!
I was thinking swiss cheese rather than a sponge cuz I'm hungry...lol. I was wondering why do you do a lot of "be roll"? That's a lot of walking to set camera up and go back and get it. Knockin' on Heaven Door is my favorite Dylan song. I remember that song, but why did it come to your mind? There were no ponds or ducks nearby.
I'm not sure if this is the reason for your sinkholes but at Black Moshannon State Park they have dips like that all over the area I was told by the park ranger that they are places where they would burn the wood into charcoal for the steel furnaces

Thanks. I love exploring this area. Hope you get to experience it sometime. I need to return in the future. I believe there is so much more😊
Subterranean Homesick Blues is my favorite Bob Dylan song.
Wow. I have to look that one up. Thanks for sharing 👍

One of my favorite campsites on the SST is on that ridge.

Love the rocks, especially ones covered in beautiful green moss. Thanks, Dave.
@@joelwatts9042 😄 agree.

I really enjoyed this video, one of my favorites. Those rock features were b-e-a-u~tiful! I might make the 3 hour drive for this one. Thank you Dave.
Thanks! It's a great place to spend a day exploring. You wont be disappointed. There was so much more i could have explored. Have a great week 👍 🙂🙏

Definitely. So much to see. I have been there many times. Barely scratched the surface. 👍
That was quite the adventure Dave. So much to see and especially nice because there looked to be no wind
And yes Dave I happen to be one of those that can’t make these adventures because of a hip replacement that went wrong I’m so happy because of you taking me along I get to enjoy being out there. Thank you so much for doing this Dave It is much appreciated. God bless you

Fun spot. I love rocksylvania😊

Awesome, you are amazing and have inspired us so much. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the kind words. Keep exploring! 😊
@dayhikedave will definitely do
Was wondering if you carry an emergency device with you on some of these treks
@@grillinandchillinwithdeb Always have first aid kit. Knife, flashlight, snacks and water. First aid kit has normal stuff plus a water filter and emergency blanket and rain poncho. Not sure that answer your question. Also Cell Phone
@dayhikedave we carry that also, was just wondering about something to alert people in case you fall or something

@@darlenegood That's a good Dylan song. Not sure why. I like to try and give everyone a good view of what I'm seeing. Need the extra miles😄
