Hey if people want to move rocks around in the water. There are plenty of bank stabilzation project, log diversions ect that TU and different organisations do. And need help with. Or how about just pickin up trash along these streams. THATS AN IDEA!

Ok, ok I'll knock the SH*T outta of the 1's in tionesta creek. I'm drivin' up that way 2 am. fri morning. Anybody else willing to take care of the 1's on the clarion and blue jay. I will return the rocks to there natural state as part of the geological make up of the stream bed. So that the hippies tree huggers (I meen that in the best possible way) dont get offended.

 
 
So will a couple of high water events

your lack of reading comprehension reflects your intellegence

i said "those aren't just little 5 rock stacks"
as is 5 (1,2,3,4,5) rocks in a stack
rather those are elaborate eyesores
...


again there are more than 5 rocks in each stack
...


you're joking right?...read and understand



nice picture post... way to keep things in context
I'm sure when someone sees an idiot stacking rocks in a Northern PA creek, the first thing that comes to mind is Stonehenge, Easter Island, pyramids, and Aztec ruins

how couldn't they?
they are in the same class of religous/cultural significance, skill, and timeleeeness


Yeah basically I am joking, because a few rocks stacked in a creek is not worthy of gettin yer panties in a bunge.
but also, you should not make such brash comments about stuff, like it is the opinion of everyone, what you think RUINED the area for everyone, made it more interesting for another, and YES Inuksuks do have the same religious/cultural signifigance for some people.
Vikings built similar structures called cairns, what I think is most interesting about these particular stacking in Tionesta, is that it is kind of a mixture of the two.

but now you have made me wonder how many people, walked past the ancient people of England, who were building Stone Henge or the people creating those carvings on Easter Island, and thought these people are IDIOTS

i always thought these were done by bored fishermen who were drunk, didn't find the great wild fishing lake they were looking for because they hadn't a GPS. I figured they found a bunch of rocks some idiots died hauling and built it for somewhere to pee since there weren't any trees around.

It isn't your fault, I'm sure it's hard to imagine anything with a closed mind.
but seriously how did any of the posts I make not refer to the ancient act of stacking rocks?

Everyone needs some form of "release". We yank fish out of their natural environment for recreation. Some folks stack rocks. Maybe they're trying to work out some personal issues. Stemming from the fact that they were never given blocks, or Leggos to play with as a child.

closed mind? hardly

trying to associate people stacking rocks in the middle of Tionesta creek to the Mayan ruins, Stonehenge, Easter Island, and the pyramids.... is a line of thought that is delusional at best

i have to agree with KJH in respect to wanting people to just leave their presence unknown in nature. i find it upsetting when i'm on top of a mountain in cameron county hunting bear and find a deflated mylar balloon on the end of a string and attached to that is a written note to the effect of someone got married in such and such a place on such a day!!

"I once made a mountain out of a mole hill! "

And the coal companies in appalachia are making mole hills out of mountains. I'm considerably more concerned over that, than a few rock piles that will be gone the 1st high water.

I would love to see someone stacking rocks up like this. And wait til there almost done and go lay a shoulder into it like Lamar Woodley does to quaterbacks. Unless Like Big Casino hinted about vikings building them I might have to bring backup! But I dont remember the last Norsemen i saw around tionesta, well at least this time of yr.

There is a new thing on social media, to throw the rip rap rocks near boat launches.
 
It is called tax rocking.

I can safely conclude that kjh does not appreciate the value of likes on instagram after spending hard earned time stacking rocks and taking pictures.  How else are we supposed to get attention on social media while also telling everyone on social media how much we love nature?

The fish commission has specifically made releases asking people to stop doing this in or near waterways. They believe it damages habitat.
Not by PGC, but it touches the points of hows it damaging to the native waterway.
