Got up to several of the northern central counties over the weekend hoping for a chance to wet my line, but knew full well that wasn't very likely. Turned it into a foliage photo trip instead.

I used to often roll past the Quehanna Wild Area on my way to Potter county, but I took some time on my way up and back to stop though for a few hours. A lot of woods to explore in this area. Stopped at the birch grove at the Marion Brooks Natural Area.

Endured the way over the top crowds at Benzette area. I can check that off my list. A bad Disney World in woods. But there were some elk.

A good fire, steak and wine at a campground for the night.

First Fork was the driest I have ever seen it. No bugs or trout could be seen will I as checking things out. Very few people compared to Elk World.

I made a run up Brooks Run Rd. to see how things looked up that way and took some pictures along the stream.
Rain was coming in so I booked out and went home.
Net Net the streams up north are ver very low and need some rain. Foilage and wildlife awesome as always.
