Yesterday was National Trails Day and I headed out to the 17.5 mile Loyalsock Link Loop, one of my favorite hikes. This is the perfect overnight or weekend backpacking trip, or long dayhike. It has it all- views, big rocks, waterfalls, streams, swimming holes, a pond, and great campsites. What I really love about this hike are the extensive hemlock forests with moss and ground pine. The woodland hiking is beautiful.
