Did Old Logger's Path in two days last weekend (many do it in three). Went counterclockwise from Masten (17.5 miles day one then out 10 on day two). Nice mix of some steep trail climbs mixed with gentle grades on old logging roads. Classic PA hiking. Beautiful watering hole at Rock Run but we didn't stay long (very nice camp sites there). Saw a rattle snake on Sharp Top (but he was friendly). Overall, fun hike, well marked and not too crowded (despite COVID).
