Westmoreland Heritage Trail Beaver Run Reservoir The reservoir was created in 1952 when Beaver Run was dammed.

Westmoreland Heritage Trail South end of Beaver Run Reservoir Fishing in and hiking around the reservoir are not allowed for public health reasons, due to a 2013 fracking wastewater spill at one of 6 deep gas well/fracking pads. The reservoir is the source of drinking water for Murrysville, Export and Delmont.

Westmoreland Heritage Trail November afternoon We stopped often to enjoy the views, with no fear of biting insects on this brisk November afternoon.

Westmoreland Heritage Trail Wetlands in the Loyalhanna Creek oxbow After 2000, 90% of acid mine drainage was removed from Loyalhanna Creek when a remediation pond was completed near St. Vincent College in Latrobe. The boggy area in one of its many oxbow bends looked like a good place to look for turtles and frogs.

Westmoreland Heritage Trail Loyalhanna Creek in November From its source on Laurel Ridge (near Donegal), Loyalhanna Creek winds 50 miles north to feed into the Conemaugh and then on to the Kiskiminetas River at Saltsburg. The creek, a PA Water Trail, offers many recreational activities.

Westmoreland Heritage Trail Loyalhanna Creek Bridge West of the PA-981 underpass, a bridge crosses Loyalhanna Creek. Riding west from Saltsburg, the trail crosses one bridge, passes through a tunnel and crosses this second bridge all in the same mile.

Westmoreland Heritage Trail Canal vs Railroad Near the east end of the Westmoreland Heritage Trail, look for the spot where the railroad is NOT built on top of the filled in canal. Rail cars mainly hauled coal, Saltsburg's primary industry after 1882.

Westmoreland Heritage Trail Explore the Kiski-Conemaugh Water Trail Another way to see remnants of the canal is to travel the 73-mile Water Trail from Johnstown to Saltsburg. The Saltsburg kayak rental shop repurposes the historic flour mill.

Westmoreland Heritage Trail Kiski-Conemaugh Canal Lock 8 Lock 8, outlined in Saltsburg's Canal Park, lifted boats 8 feet up the Kiskiminetas River on their route from the Allegheny to the Conemaugh. Salt and passengers were transported between Pittsburgh and Blairsville from 1829-1864.

Westmoreland Heritage Trail Saltsburg Canal Park The West Penn Trail roughly follows the route of the Saltsburg Canal along the Kiskiminetas River, formed by the confluence of the Conemaugh River and Loyalhanna Creek. The 'Kiski' flows northwest to the Allegheny River near Pittsburgh.

Westmoreland Heritage Trail Westmoreland Heritage Trail - Turtle Creek Extension Side This park at the southern end of the extension trail has a nice little park with a fishing pond, shelters, children's play equipment and lots of grass to run on. Cute little park.

Westmoreland Heritage Trail Forward East! From this former east end of the TCRR at Export, the new trail segment here will be connected to the already completed Delmont-Saltsburg trail, making one fantastic historical trail from the eastern suburbs of Pittsburgh into the Central PA mountains!

Westmoreland Heritage Trail PRR Whistlepost at Export Somebody has recently confiscated cast Milepost 10 here, but I am hopeful that the developers of this west end of the trail will be heritage sensitive and retain classic relics like this whistlepost, and hopefully more mileposts, westward to Trafford.

Westmoreland Heritage Trail Rail Removal at Trafford Rd I stumbled upon track removal yesterday at Trafford Road, just south of 22 in Murrysville. Even this trail section will be a beautiful through-woods creekside run! I am really excited about the completion of the west end of this trail!

Westmoreland Heritage Trail Future Trail at Murrysville Access to the trail, food, and lots of other amenities, even quick medical service, will be easily accessed, right along US-22!
