“I please myself
with the graces of the winter scenery, and believe that we are as much touched
by it as by the genial influences of summer.”

River Color ...
“Life is a train of moods like a string of beads; and as we pass through
them they prove to be many colored lenses, which paint the world their own hue,
and each shows us only what lies in its own focus.”
~ Ralph Waldo

Autumn
colors reflect and dance in the Lehigh River on a beautiful October afternoon
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 Delaware and Lehigh National Heritage Corridor (D&L Trail).
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. Running
from Wilkes-Barre to Bristol, the D&L Trail passes through the Lehigh and
Delaware rivers and their canals in Pennsylvania.
The
Lehigh Gap Bridge was built in 1930 and rehabilitated in 1984.
