Kinzua

Today we went to Kinzua Dam and the Alleghany National Forest.  We've gone to this area for a day of fun for a number of summers and we used to enjoy walking right up to the base of the dam where the spray of the water would sometimes blow on you and the roar of the falling water would drown out other sounds.  Now, alas, that area has become restricted.  In fact, this year we were restricted from walking across the broad road at the top of the dam, and that was such a fun thing to do, also.

We had our picnic lunch in the dam area and then went to Rimrock Lookout where we spent the rest of our time, till we headed for home. 

We did two geocache searches.  The first was hidden along the path near the dam reservoir and the second was in a cave near the base of the hill at Rimrock.

It was a fun day but we missed being able to get up close to the roaring waters of the dam.
