There are the remnants of two of those old dams they used to get timber down the stream on Breastworks run in Somerset county , also further upstream are the remnants of Fort Dewart and the Forbes trail , there are wagon wheel ruts worn into the bedrock on the side of the mountain , the coolest things are what gives the stream/run it's name , they are old logs stacked in a V shape called a breastwork and they were used to hide behind while being shot at and reloading flintlocks. This is all located along rt 30 west above and along the mountain where the old Ship Motel was. It was also called Noahs Ark later before it burnt down.
