Went to D.C. and got good response from Senators to community request that F.S. stop #clearcutting the steepest slopes. Below is a local F.S. clearcut on >50% slope, which is contrary to the #Monongahela #Forest Plan. Can't see how this helps with #flooding #WorthMoreStanding

Wondering about the route...
Did they make the trek overland, or catch a boat on the #Monongahela or #Ohio River and ride it down?

The Forest Service is close to a decision on the #UpperCheatRiver Project of the #Monongahela #NationalForest to #clearcut 3,500 acres of our oldest trees on steep slopes to create "Early Successional" habitat. The cut includes oaks and sugar maples more than 200 years old.

Downtown Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania from across the Monongahela River. Fort Pitt Bridge is under construction on right. Summer 1958. Scanned from a 35mm Kodachrome slide.

Apparently, today was #bridgesOfMastadon day, so I thought Iβd share a different set of #bridges than I normally do. A #magical day atop #mtWashington in #pittsburgh #pgh looking down at all the bridges across the #Allegheny and #Monongahela rivers #photography #shotoniphone #rainbow

Here's a small stream, Hile Run, in the #Monongahela #NationalForest. Flows down and through our farm. Great place for swimming and brook trout fishing. Surrounded by mature #ClimateForests and #OldGrowth
