Hike #6265 – PENN MOUNTAIN – March 30, 2014

 There once was a chap named Dick,

Whose wife Lewellyne was sick,

In all of his dreams,

the women it seems

Surrounded his body with Tramps

A gregarious gent named James

took record of outings on frames

His camera did click

and recorded a Dick

surrounded by several dames.

Hike #5980 – Penn Mountain – Oct 8, 2011

Hike #5980 – Penn Mountain – Oct 8, 2011

The day was cloudy but warm. We parked by the old Welsh chapel on E. Steuben Road. The hike up Penn Mountain was the steepest grade on the hike.

At the tee we turned right and went down the hill and up again to the cemetery. We examined the tombstones and checked the dates. Some people turned back at this point. We went down the hill past the cemetery to a low point which had a stream running over and was difficult to cross.

After the low point we turned left, and walked into the small pond that is in the area. The road was not in the best of condition. When we reached the dam for the pond we found that the day had been considerably torn up by wheeled vehicles that puts the pond and dam at risk.

After the pond we retraced our route down the hill to the cars. The trip down offered us a fine view of the Cincinnati valley.
