Photography Spots In and Around Johnstown
Makenzie Croyle

This is a list of some of the best photography spots in and around Johnstown, Pennsylvania! I, personally, have visited all of these places. Most of these places are easily accessible, and enjoyable to visit.

Devil's Rock

Located in Johnstown, Devil's Rock gives you a lovely view of downtown. Following the path for a short hike through the woods, you'll be lead to a graffiti covered cliff face. Though the bustling city is below you, Devil's Rock offers a very peaceful view of the city of Johnstown.

Johnstown Incline Plane

The Incline Plane offers another spectacular view of the city, from a different perspective from Devil's Rock. Being the steepest incline in the world, taking a ride is a must! Not only is this a great photography spot, but it's a great opportunity to learn some of the history of the Johnstown Flood of 1889.

The Trolley Graveyard

Located in Windber, the Trolley Graveyard is one of a kind. Tucked back in the woods, there are 14 graffiti-covered trolleys that are a photographers dream. If you decide to venture to this wonderful site, be sure to watch for broken glass and other broken objects in and around the trolleys.

The Ghost Town Trail

With multiple entrances, the Ghost Town Trail stretches 36 miles through Indiana and Cambria counties. Not only is it a beautiful trail, many parts of it have a rich history; Vintondale, Wherum, and Claghorn are all old mining towns that the trail runs through. Take a bike ride, or hike down the trail, and don't forget your camera!

Greenhouse Park

Greenhouse Park is a small park located about three miles south of downtown. With the Stony Creek River running through the heart of the park, this offers plenty of opportunities to take photographs. With large rocks covering the riverside, the scenery is absolutely beautiful.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
