Lakes in state parks across Pennsylvania often are surrounded by woodland that creeps right up to the shoreline in many spots, providing an idyllic setting for a bit of ice skating.
The Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources lists ice skating as an activity available in 47 state parks.
Most parks are described as skating “permitted on the natural ice of the lake as conditions permit.” Some monitor the thickness of the ice, which can be checked on the DCNR State Parks Winter Report.
A handful of parks go a bit further by designating and maintaining areas of their lakes for skating, even to the extent of providing lighting at night. Here’s a look at those 14: ....

An estimated 80,000 users each year enjoy the trail, w ....

Hope for hemlocks


Several new scientific discoveries give hope that eastern hemlocks will not go the way of chestnut, elm and ash trees and largely disappear from forests in the Chesapeake Bay watershed.
Hemlocks are one of the most prevalent, longest-living, beautiful and ecologically vital trees in Appalachian forests. Sometimes called the redwoods of the East, they can take 250–300 years to mature and live more than 800 years.
They also have a long history with humans. Native Americans used hemlocks for medicines. Settlers used the tips of branches for tea and as a dye for wool and cotton. The mountains of Pennsylvania have ghost towns where leather factories sprung up to receive the tannin from hemlock bark to turn animal skins into leather. The trees’ intense shade cools streams and supports fish habitat. And many homeowners still want hemlocks in their landscaping tableaux. ....

Editor s note: Today s feature is the second spotlighting the eastern hemlock, which is threatened by an invasive insect.
Hemlock trees in Pennsylvania were used by Native Americans for medicinal purposes and later, loggers relied on the massive trees for lumber. The trees unique bark hue was also used for tanning of leather. 
Given that, it s no wonder the hemlock is Pennsylvania s state tree. Today, the hemlock is threatened by an invasive species — the woolly adelgid — which has decimated populations of eastern hemlocks in more southern states, and is threatening to do the same here.
Officials with the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) are working to fend off the woolly adelgid and are utilizing insecticides, biological sources and Mother Nature herself. ....
