Trough Creek State Park

On our way to visit Aunt Vivian and Uncle Butch in Johnsonburg PA we decided to take a quick trip to Trough Creek State Park east of Altoona.

The suspension bridge was Emmaline and Matt's favorite, it was bouncy.  Below is a video.

Mmm nature walk.

Rainbow Falls

Lots of big rocks

Push!

We hiked to Balanced Rock.

The water is so cold.

This is the Ice Mine, cold air comes out of the rocks in fact the rocks have ice on them.

Oh, so cold.  Maybe 30 degrees

Em had to crawl in to see the ice on the rocks.
