A beaver damThe 50-mile John Muir Trail terminates in Pickett State Park at the head of Rock Creek on Black House Mountain Road. The trail continues a few miles to Old Wagon Trail Road, skirting above Williams Creek through a series of mini slot canyons. A beaver dam clogged about a quarter mile of Rock Creek and created a bayou-like area. The park has placed a few dubious boardwalk bridges across the deeper sections, some of which measured 5 feet in depth. Many ATV users ride Black House Mountain Road, which leads north to views overlooking the Pottsville Escarpment. Pixel had a new friend on this journey: Poco! and they walked about 14 miles and crossed Rock Creek about 50 times. Oy vey!
