The Catfish trail seems to be often overlooked. This is a nice short trail traversing from the Whiskey Point Trailhead to the Wooden Steps located on Kane Blvd. I walk here often and wanted to share this hidden trail!
PLEASE BRING A PEN/PENCIL! :) In the Cache I left a mini hard hat flashlight from the Carpenters Union Training Center, a small smiley face figurine and a BMW MOA Patch (BMW Motorcycle Ownders Group). Happy Finding!
Hundreds of books, articles, and essays have been written about the Whiskey Rebellion and many of its key events took place right here in Scott Township. The Scott Conservancy has been working to honor that legacy by naming the trails in the Scott nature preserve after leading figures and events in the Whiskey Rebellion. One is named after Tom the Tinker, one of the leaders of the Rebellion, and another is named for General Neville.
Don McGuirk, who has researched the role Bower Hill and the Kane Woods played in early American history, said the Kane trail network was developed with an emphasis on highlighting and preserving land where a series of critical events took place in 1794 that helped shape the future direction of our country.
A Liberty Pole, a symbol around which the rebels gathered, will also be erected, and the Conservancy will place story boards at key sites along the trails explaining the Rebellion. Brochures will also be available for visitors who want to learn more about the Rebellion.
