Summary

The level of this reservoir varies widely in its function as a flood control for the Clarion & Allegheny Rivers. Under the water at just about the point it disappears around the bend is the town of Instanter. From the late 19th c until the 1920s, this area was nearly clearcut of hemlock - just to get the chemicals out of its bark. Location for this photo reached by driving twelve miles on unpaved roads and walking four miles more. Interestingly, when I located this on the Flickr map, it self identified as Instanter, which I did not know was still used as a geographical location.
