I'm finding this thread really insightful. I live in the DC suburbs and have just started to become aware of the treasure that is PA coldwater. For me, Fulton, Adams, Franklin, Cumberland and York counties are the most accessible. I'm overwhelmed by the possibilities, it seems that I could spend the next 20 years exploring just those five counties.
I have a few clarifying questions:
1. I grew up in suburban California, so this will be naive. How do you go about asking for access to private land? Never done it, kind of intimidated. Is it common for land owners to get this kind of request? From the PFBC maps, there's a lot of naturally reproducing trout water/class A trout water on land with 0% public access.
2. Swattie - do you mind clarifying your point #5, for SCPA? Are there some typical kinds of features that one should look for when trying to identify waters of interest? Would it be springs or geological information like limestone? Are there key indicators for cold water?
Thanks,
Dongbo
