The Overlook

Urey Overlook is in York County and is a portion of the Susquehannock State Park which is in Lancaster County.  The .92 mile walk to the overlook was a really pretty and very easy walk.  The trail is wide and not very rocky.  Please use a brown marker on the stamp.
 Go around the gate to the blue blazed trail.
 
 Make the turn towards the overlook and enjoy the view.
 A little history lesson.
 The northern view of the Susquehanna River from the overlook.
The bench and the southern view.
Find the trees with the yellow blaze on the right side and the blue blazes on the left.
 Then find the two beech trees...see, one has a big hole in it.  Walk around on the left side of the trees to the oak tree. 
 While walking, you will need to walk over this big quartz boulder which has sunk into the ground.
 You are getting closer!
 Now look under the pile of leaves and branches.
