A 1/2 hour hike from the campsite is a waterfalls. Outback Adventurers will be doing the shuttle for $20 per boat. You will need to bring your own gear and food.

Our campsite will be at the mouth of Logan Run near Marienville. Do a search for Logan Falls Allegheny National Forest to see the beautiful images.

Your trip sounds wonderful! I would love to go, but there is a whitewater festival I am committed to instead. Please let me know how you like it; I might consider doing it this October or next spring. One question, is the $20 per boat shuttle fee based on a certain minimum number of boats or is that the flat rate? I saw where their website said a 2 boat minimum, but does the rate go down as the number of boats increases? Do you happen to know if there is any public access to the creek?

Have FUN!

To bad you can't make it, May is the best month for this run. It would be better if you contacted Outback directly to answer you questions concerning their services.

Unfortunately the rain overnight and going on now puts the water level above a safe level for this creek.

Default Great trip!

Jim R, Mike D and myself had a very enjoyable weekend. It was one of the cleanest creeks I have seen. Best run 2' and over. We visited a old pump station building, a water falls and frog rock. The weather was perfect. Lots of trout fisherman.
