cool doc, I had a business trip to south central NYS, actually babysitting a critical part production for a client that was going to keep me over a weekend. I booked the weekend at the (now defunct) Blackwell Hotel on Pine Creek in the PA Grand Canyon. The B&B provided the bike to ride to Slate Run and along the Pine Creek fire roads. The chef was from "here", got up in the morning to make me breakfast tacos, and pack me a lunch for the bikefish. Every fly-fishing president has fished Pine Creek.
