Llaurels also go to my big brother, the ‘other’ Balko, who taught me more than a few things, not least of which were the ways around Belmont Hill and the paths to Sam’s Run and Buttermilk Falls.

This is Buttermilk Falls in Moxham, not to be confused with the falls in Indiana County or the town just below Idlewild Park. Either up from the bottom or down from the top, the climb is pretty much verticle, and don’t think it’s easy scrambling up or down while humping 30 pounds of photo equipment on your back (soon to become a recurring theme on LL). I’m planning to get back, though, when there’s more water running or snow falling. It’s worth the effort, especially if you enjoy the photos.
