This trail isn't actually the official Twin Lakes Trail which cuts across the ANF, but it is in the Twin Lakes Recreational area, where that trail begins, and it circles the actual Twin Lakes, so it's close enough.

During our PA vacation, we made a side trip up to Toronto to see the CN Tower and on our way back, Niagara Falls. From the Falls, we cut through Buffalo, down thru NY and into northern PA, towards Ridgway, near the deer hunting camp that my family owns. It's not in the greatest shape, but it's free and in a much cooler climate than AZ is right now.

On our first full day, we woke up and took a ride up to the Kinzua Bridge, an old decommissioned train trestle that was severely damaged in a storm in July 2003. After we saw that, we made our way thru some back roads to some trails nearby that I spotted on some online maps. I wanted to make our way to the Brush Hollow TH, but the road we took ended up dead ending in the Twin Lakes area. So, we decided to stop and do a quick loop around the lake to get out of the car, seeing as we had driven over 1000 miles within the previous week.

It was nothing special, being more of a camping and picnic area, but it was a good start to warm up for our bigger hike later on.
