Description:High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! There are 24 named waterfalls in Ricketts Glen State Park in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania, ranging in height from 9 to 94 feet (2.7 to 29 m), along Kitchen Creek as it flows in three steep, narrow valleys, or glens. Ricketts Glen State Park is named for R. Bruce Ricketts, a colonel in the American Civil War who owned over 80,000 acres (32,000 ha) in the area in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, but spared the old growth forests in the glens from clearcutting. The park, which opened in 1944, is administered by the Bureau of State Parks of the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR). Nearly all of the waterfalls are visible from the Falls Trail, which Ricketts had built from 1889 to 1893 and which the state park rebuilt in the 1940s and late 1990s. The Falls Trail has been called "the most magnificent hike in the state" and one of "the top hikes in the East."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
