Sawkill Falls

At 9.1 m. is a junction with an unmarked, macadamized road.

Left on this to a parking space, 0.3 m., from which a footpath leads 0.5 m. through a tree-arched glen to SAWKILL FALLS. Here Sawkill Creek in a forest-crowned gorge drops 25 feet to a flat table of rock, then falls another So or 60 feet and vanishes into a chasm that is dark on the sunniest day.

The falls are in GRAY TOWERS (private), the estate of Gifford Pinchot, former governor of Pennsylvania (1923-7, 1931-5). The castlelike residence was built in 1886. Large conical-roofed towers, each 63 feet high and 20 feet in diameter, spring from three corners of the gray stone structure. The interior contains 23 fireplaces. The SCOTCH GARDEN, with its high stone wall, completes the planned effect of a Scottish castle.
