| Fall in Beltzville, Lehigh Gorge, Hickory Run and Tobyhanna State Parks of Pennsylvania |
When trees in central New Jersey Change color, it is time to look for foliage colors in further north. This year the route is west to the neighbouring
Pennsylvania. The boulder field covering 16 acres in the Hickory Run State Park is a National Natural Landmark is another reason of this exploration.
LeHigh Gorge and Tobyhanna State Parks are well known foliage spots.
Beltzville State Park has a big lake, foliage will be great with water reflecting the colors. It is southern most and was reached first.

Beyond the dumpster on the beach, there are fossils to be picked. I found a trilobite and shells of different kind. The lake water was low in the fall, so
fossil hunting is ideal. The colors are not quite ready yet.
