Thank you so much for that. I love it when you go back to places and that place is a bit of a fave those stone walls are gorgeous. The crunching of the leaves, the golden shower makes for gorgeous video, just loved it. Thanks so much for taking me along please stay safe and take care
You’re hiking through a beautiful place - nice and quiet and I’m enjoying traveling along with you in this video 😊 That must’ve been a really nice town when it was all built up there’s not much left now but it was a nice hike through the woods thank you for sharing this interesting video 😊💕
Thank you so much for taking me along. No one I know shares my interest in abandoned places and history, although my son will take me to places, I know his heart is not in it. He is just being kind. I'm old now and can no longer hike due to COPD. So thank you. I would never had had the opportunity to see these places especially with someone else who is so interested in them.
I was there. Took the car tour when they open the road. My relatives are near there. My aunt lived on Goldmine Road. The spring "pump" is amazing. just reducing the pipe size can drip it up to the water tower. My other Uncle was the Local Historian for that area. Francis Ditzler the youngest boy of 9, ( my mother was the youngest girl now 93 and the last surviving), wrote several history books, including Old Black Joe who was a runaway slave. There is also a road that goes to it over the mountain from the opposite side as the railroad bed. It is dirt and washed out most times, with a creek at the bottom.
I HAVE SEEN THIS ONE BEFORE, BUT I ENJOYED SEEING IT AGAIN. ITS SO BEAUTIFUL PEACEFUL. I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW THAT MOSS WOULD COVER STUFF LIKE STEPS. I WISH I WAS AROUND BACK IN THE DAY IT WAS IN FUNCTION. IT WOULD BE VERY EXCITING. THANKS AGAIN FOR SHOWING THIS AS I WILL NEVER GET TIRED OF IT. ITS SURE A BIG TREASURE.
Hi Cliff catching up with you. This was amazing & beautiful!! Would love walking that everyday. Hope you got some rest you did look tired. Appreciate all you do for us. Take good care.🥰
So I can't find my original comment on here..but my ancestors named Krause emigrated from Silesia..near Poland..They were Moravians and left their homeland due to religious persecution. My ancestors helped to build and settle Bethlehem, PA in the late 1700's.. So this is really cool.
I can't thank you enough for getting me hip to S.G.L. 211, I put a lot of miles in up and around there this summer and it's helped keep me sane during dark times. Overnight-ed on the AT up in Yellow springs last week. Hope to cross trails with you eventually! Stay safe and take good care of yourself!
Never know, could do some back research on the area and find it. Did that to the local mining ghost town and found its related other closeby. Was an interesting dive, helping by bro with a college geo cultural history project with it as the center.
@@myboyz9391 many in my area are first settlers of west pa including a good portion of my mom side. The revolution lottery gave many who were soldiers land as payment, and that is how the area got settled originally besides fur trade and William Penn and/or his son's stuff. The local ghost town I helped my bro research first origins is from the revolution lottery grant.
Me too. My local haunt at Lake Galena in Bucks County used to be a lead mining town in the 19th century (N. Branch Neshaminy Creek dammed in 1970's, flooding the former town of Galena creating the lake) and photos of how things were back then are scarce.
That could have been a hallway for additional rooms or offices for the hotel. I always like to revisit places I have filmed or been to, never know what you are going find the next time around. Thank you for sharing.
I really enjoyed this. I live in Florida now; but, I am a long time PA girl. I never got to this old ruins; but, what a lovely walk, forest and interesting history. I lived in Lehigh County most of my life. Lebanon County is two counties to the west of where I lived. Nice video, nice to refresh my memory for how beautiful PA is.
Hi Cliff, I do remember these ruins from before, it looks so beautiful with the Fall colour as a backdrop and the crunch as you walk through them. It must have been a happening place back in the day with people just relaxing away from the noise of the cities. Thank you for sharing, much love. xx💖
wow....how cool would it be to see the photo's if Any of this place when it was still a village. I googled it and all I can find is a few other videos of what u had filmed which I wll have to watched....LOVED THIS VIDEO!....thanks for the share
Interesting place to visit, probably a lot of history was made there. Good time to visit looks like in the fall of the year very beautiful place. Thank you
Great video and glad you when back there I just find your video today I got interested in this place that I ask my husband if we can go and check that out and we did. We are about 1 hour away. I have to tell you guys this is and amazing place just like you described and I agree with you is rejuvenate and the air is so pure it took me back to my childhood growing up in the mountains ⛰ over sea. If anyone one leave close by I recommend is beautiful there me and my husband enjoyed and thinking to go back and bring the kids with us. Thanks so much for doing this videos.
A life affirming place to be . The solitude of the forests of Pennsylvania are amazing, ( although I’m not much of an outside person ) , my husband used to hunt the “ Game-lands “ of York County,, he’d always come home with neat stories, even if he didn’t bag a deer . I grew up in Blair County, my Dad would hunt the whole way up into Cambria and Clearfield sometimes, and he’d bring home some cool stories, and a lot of times , a deer.
Beautiful looks like a place we need to visit. I’m not familiar with the town but I grew up in my early years in Lebanon, my Dad was the manager of Lebanon Village in the 70’s
I heard the katydid towards the beginning and thought that was one late katydid. They are my fave insect. Takes me back to when I was a kid and we'd visit my grandparents in rural AL. The katydids would be calling while we sat on the porch in the evening and they would lull me to sleep when I went to bed. They still do if I have the windows open. I have even recorded them so I can hear them during the winter. Great explore. It was a YMCA boys camp for a while until mortar shells got a little too close. Thanks for another awesome learning experience.
That music was TAPS, usually played later in the day, at nighttime when its time to go to bed. That was a beautiful hike. It reminds me a spring resort town way up in the NW corner of PA called Cambridge Springs, there used to be something like four or five massive wooden resort hotels, even into the 1990s. One of the last ones just burned down recently. They are located right next to a creek called French Creek and springs were right next to the creek.
There's a nice story on the CBS news about a guy who goes out on his balcony every night and plays TAPS up in Washington state. People love it. Look forward to the end of the day.
A Beautiful place WW and Thanks Kindly for taking us along! My Grandparents used to talk about riding the train and trolleys to visit Mt. Great for the day. How nice it would be to hop on a train or trolley and enjoy the day in a beautiful place. One can imagine the grand city ladies strolling about. Quite a different time with a whole different set of concerns and worries. But basically human worries are the same in and era. Ups and downs, joys and sorrows in relationships, births and passings and Love of friends and families. It is the human experience. We learn most from the failures rather than the best times. But all in all this gift of life, of each other and the joys of our Beautiful Mother Earth is the true wealth that is so far from gold and silver! Being in Nature is healing and brings us back into balance in a tipsy world. We all are Nature ourselves after all! And just as those fancy ladies from the city that summered there not just for the cooler weather only but for the peace and balance they sought as well. Peace and Joy of Spirit WW! DaveyJO
So much cool history that most people dont even know about..love your videos..Im from johnstown PA..I never knew until like a year ago there was an old mine on the hill behind the incline plane that there was an explosion in in the early 1900s and 112 guys got killed..It was called the Rolling mill mine. You can take a trail up to see a little bit of the opening but they have it fenced off..you cant get inside.
A beautiful woods for sure just be careful the boogie man doesn’t get you. I hear it’s a Bigfoot hangout also just be on the look out. Love your channel
No harm in revisiting some of the places you have been. True you always find something you didn't see the first time.. Days are getting shorter. I always enjoy your videos.. Why lot people say Pennsylvania haunted? Never show proof. Just because a place is abandoned don't mean its haunted.. Is all that protected land. There's so much land yet people want to move to Alaska, live off the grid. Seem the government could make a deal where there once was old towns, buildings that's now overgrown, yet peaceful and serene. I'd live there.like our ancestors did. Grow food plant fruit and but trees. They had wells.. Sometimes I wished I could go back in time, see how things looked back then. I'd like to be a time traveler, when the noise and things got to be a bit much. Just travel back to a simpler place in time. But then I might not want to come back.. Thanks for another interesting video. I see why you like revisiting some these places. I'm a simple person. Don't ask for much and not hard to please. Take care, be safe. Love, respect, and positivity always. Neita James.:-)
People say 'haunted' in the comments about as much as "This would be a good place for metal detecting" and "That place must have been grand back in the day". I don't get it.
A tour bus caught fire down at the base Cold Springs Rd which the driver accessed from 2nd Mountain at Hawk Watch. The bus driver which was hauling a guard unit around the base during an AT said he got lost and ended up down at Stony Creek. On his way down he must have bottomed out and caught the bus on fire from the large rocks that were sticking up. After much effort weeks later the bus was cut in half and removed via the railroad bed. I remember so well!
I'm from the Colonial Park area & when I was around 10 or 11 my dad took me up a mountain trail & when we got to the one place there was a small stream running down the mountain. There was a tree that had a metal ladle hanging from a nail so you could get a drink. That was the best water I ever had & now I'm 68!
I had no idea! I'm from south Central Pennsylvania and now live in the northeast. You're right about Fort Indiantown Gap. My dad is buried in their military cemetery. I read that the resort closed in 1900. This is very interesting. The Appalachian Trail goes through Cold Spring Township. Thank you for this interesting tour! I just looked at a picture and there seemed to be a body of water in front of the resort. Do you know what it is? It was mentioned that it was a lake. I also read that there was a camp for boys at one time until some mortars from the Gap fell into the camp while there were WWII exercises going on, so the Gap took over the land but returned it to the commonwealth in 1956.
You are a wonderful a teacher. you're going places I would never be be able to walk. I would like to see the Moveloma people restore that Village. I know I butchered that name sorry.
I have hunted this one SGL for years and have found a sidewalk in the brush near a small spring. It is really brushed over and you have to find it by accident. Maybe a quarter mile away along the creek is another site that was an old farm. There is a steep bank going down to the creek. Up near the top is an old well filled in with junk. Next to that is a root cellar dug into the bank. It is lined with stone and whitewashed. It has been a while since I was back there so I do not remember if it was plastered or not. It looks really good yet inside. You have to get into the brush to find it. So I am guessing there was at least two farms on that SGL at one time.
An FYI for future reference - zip codes didn't come into being until around 1963. The postal zoning system was introduced in 1943 (not the same as "zip codes" - "ZIP" stands for "Zone Improvement Plan" which was an upgrade to the then-current "zone" system). Thus the "zone" system would have been used in the latter days of Cold Springs's existence, but prior to 1943, there was no coding system of any kind.
Check out state game lands 252. WW2 bunkers,and the abandoned town of Alvira. Churches foundations and cemetery's . We enjoy your journey thru our state.
The woods are medicine for the soul.
Pennsylvania is probably the coolest state. You get a little bit of everything here. I never appreciated it until I got older.
Love your videos and the comments as well - I feel the camaraderie of the group as we venture forth with you! 🙏❤
Great video!!!so far ❤❤❤❤History from Georgia 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍
I googled this and found a drawing or picture of the hotel and other buildings around it. Really interesting video and a very nice place.
I’m not finding this specific place. Do you have a link? Thank you
@@ormorphe www.stonyvalley.com/coldspring.html
Way cool Cliff! Thank you for taking us on another great adventure!
What a great camera-this gives you a real you are there feeling-wow😊 What a beautiful forrest
The chatter of katydids is one of my favorite sounds.
Beautiful. Love the crunching leaves.
It's always fascinating to find pieces of history.
Thumbs up Cliff! So peaceful, love the sound of the insects and rustling leaves...plus some awesome ruin foundations!
I enjoyed the hike thru the woods!!! I love seeing the old stone ruins!!! Thank you Cliff for sharing!!! Take care, stay safe and God bless you!!!
Beautiful country Thank you for posting.
thank you for the hike, but you know you can take a day off to rest and relax. especially after a very busy day.
New sub absolutely stunning footage thank you for taking me along your journey nice stress reliever thank you💚
Great job Cliff enjoying!!!this video ❤❤❤❤❤👍
Boy would that trail make for a nice horse back ride it’s really a beautiful spot.
Thank you so much for that. I love it when you go back to places and that place is a bit of a fave those stone walls are gorgeous. The crunching of the leaves, the golden shower makes for gorgeous video, just loved it. Thanks so much for taking me along please stay safe and take care
You’re hiking through a beautiful place - nice and quiet and I’m enjoying traveling along with you in this video 😊
That must’ve been a really nice town when it was all built up there’s not much left now but it was a nice hike through the woods thank you for sharing this interesting video 😊💕
The earth does reclaim what's hers.
Only when we let her.
What a great video - the darker lighting, freshly fallen leaves amid the ruins, and single katydid ( my favorite sound) play on the imagination
Thank you so much for taking me along. No one I know shares my interest in abandoned places and history, although my son will take me to places, I know his heart is not in it. He is just being kind. I'm old now and can no longer hike due to COPD. So thank you. I would never had had the opportunity to see these places especially with someone else who is so interested in them.
Those lichens and the Mosses on those stones are beautiful.

You peaked my curiosity so I had to Google Cold Springs. Really a neat vlog, thanks.

I WISH I WAS AROUND BACK IN THE DAY IT WAS IN FUNCTION. IT WOULD BE VERY EXCITING. THANKS AGAIN FOR SHOWING THIS AS I WILL NEVER GET TIRED OF IT. ITS SURE A BIG TREASURE.
Oh I loved this place when you took us along some time ago
Loved it again even more
So nostalgic xx
A great place to revisit. You're right, you see new things each time.
love the vids man, always fun watching your wanders !!
Wow, really cool video!👍
Hi Cliff catching up with you. This was amazing & beautiful!! Would love walking that everyday. Hope you got some rest you did look tired. Appreciate all you do for us. Take good care.🥰
Those stone pillars are absolutely gorgeous.😍

I hunted SGL 211 with my boys several times in the last. Such an enchanting place. Sor th the efforts to get back in there. It is definatly back in.
It feels like the Mayan ruins! I just love these places...thank you!
Love exploring these areas. Nice job.
Again thanks Mr.C. Enjoyed.
Awesome old stone ruins. "Don't know what the zip code was". LOL😆😅😄

can never get enough of Cold Springs
You were hearing Taps. It is played every evening at sunset at military installations when they lower the American Flag.
There's a nice story on the CBS news about a guy who goes out on his balcony every night and plays TAPS up in Washington state. People love it. Look forward to the end of the day.
That's "To the Color" - Taps is at lights out.
That's revelry
There's a National Guard Training Facility just to the north there.
Indiantown Gap military cemetery is close to these woods . it’s a military post, used mostly by PA. national guard
You were listening to Retreat at the military installation. I like the Cabella's hat!!!
There's a lot of places like this in pa is fun to find them
we are going to gettysburg in april. aný of these places around there
@@cindybrian5589 tons, so much history form there, lots of civil war stuff, and not just pa history but a lot of American history as well
Man so cool love hearing about places like this
You remind me of friends who have done similar things with my books, and it's good to see you again in such a beautiful and tranquil place
Awesome Video Thank you

Check out Pithole in Venango County. It's fascinating, it was basically a city abandoned after the oil boom.
local history is so important. the past is filled with many lost towns.
Great video Cliff
So much cool history that most people dont even know about..love your videos..Im from johnstown PA..I never knew until like a year ago there was an old mine on the hill behind the incline plane that there was an explosion in in the early 1900s and 112 guys got killed..It was called the Rolling mill mine. You can take a trail up to see a little bit of the opening but they have it fenced off..you cant get inside.
It would be amazing to superimpose what a house would look like when you view a ruined foundation.
My husband is in the military and often goes to the gap.. we will be taking a trip to go see this!
So peaceful❤
A beautiful woods for sure just be careful the boogie man doesn’t get you. I hear it’s a Bigfoot hangout also just be on the look out. Love your channel
perfect falling leaves !!
There are many beautiful wooded areas in PA. this one is only 30 miles from Harrisburg, PA , the capital.
I'm from Montgomery County, PA but live in Northern Arizona now (beautiful in it's own right, of course) and I do miss the Eastern Woods...
Wow, accidentally found and Subscribed, I'm from Pennsylvania, I Fish these kind of hike in places from Kayak
great place I live 10 mins down the road from this place

Great video!
beauteous, woodsman. . .
I went to school right down the street (Carson Long) and we also used to go to a place around there we called the fossil cliffs
Wow, that place rotted away fast.
That or it was burned and torn down to keep the condemed building from posing hiker hazards. West Winfield had a similar fate.
Considering that zip codes were introduced in 1963, I don’t think the ruins had a zip code.
I was going to say the same thing.
Good point.
the sound on your new camera is great!

I have hunted this one SGL for years and have found a sidewalk in the brush near a small spring. It is really brushed over and you have to find it by accident. Maybe a quarter mile away along the creek is another site that was an old farm. There is a steep bank going down to the creek. Up near the top is an old well filled in with junk. Next to that is a root cellar dug into the bank. It is lined with stone and whitewashed. It has been a while since I was back there so I do not remember if it was plastered or not. It looks really good yet inside. You have to get into the brush to find it. So I am guessing there was at least two farms on that SGL at one time.
The long building might have been a stable for the horses and carriages, would had been maybe a bakery, laundry and storage buildings.
Nice Watkins Glen T
The train station is in the basement of the historical museum in Lebanon city
Cliff when you started down the grand avenue, was that a bear a head of you crossing it. No think it was deer on second look.

No seriously. Idk about that particular area of Cold Springs, though.
