It’s
a Kittatinny color pop as evening shadows begin to fall during an early
November sunset across the Kittatinny Ridge, also called Blue Mountain, in this
artistic shot I captured along the Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage
Corridor (D&L Trail) at Lehigh Gap.
The Lehigh Gap in Slatington, Pennsylvania, is a crossroads where the Lehigh Gap Nature Center’s trails connect two historic trails – the Appalachian Trail and the D&L Trail).
Running from Wilkes-Barre to Bristol, the D&L Trail passes through the Lehigh and Delaware rivers and their canals in Pennsylvania.
The Appalachian Trail, a foot path, follows the ridge on both sides of the Lehigh Gap, running 1,245 miles south to Georgia and 930 miles north to Maine.
