We also stopped to see what the "Natural Waterslides" were all about. As Lee said, this must be the last place in Pennsylvania where kids are allowed to hurt themselves!

We ended the day by dining at the Summit Inn, which sits on the western-most ridge of the Allegheny Mountains. The view was amazing. Unfortunately, it was a hazy day, but to give you an idea the road drops 2000 feet in 3 miles:
I am writing this from just south of Cleveland, our second stop on the road west.
