Hunting Creek

Cunningham Falls Park, Thurmont Md
Today I am in the Catoctin Mountains near Thurmont. They had a nice interpretive trail for the charcoal making process that supported the iron furnaces on down the creek in the valley. It was quite a bit of work to make the pig iron. Eventually the furnaces began using coal. There is no way that America could have done what she has without coal
