Looks like a prehistoric dragon fly. Peaceful spot.

What a beautiful place! You always find such unique areas.

Wife wrote her Master's thesis about those ponds. Probably not iron pits, but just subsidence of the eroded materials off the mountain, and there's limestone underlying. The trails were ATV paths 15 years ago.

What an interesting place! Thanks for sharing!

Beautiful ! Cliff

I don't feel confident hiking off trail in nature preserves. I'm sure I would get lost and they would find my dead body months later. So thanks for taking me along on this adventure. And the closeup of the dragonfly was amazing!

Thanks awesome video I enjoyed watching

I've been on Sunset ridge also above park office. Between June and August is when Rattlesnakes travel.

Looking more like swamps and mosquitoes love them.

Interesting hike. Yeah, those ponds would definitely mosquito factories. Thanks for sharing!

Mosquitoes. One of the outdoorsman/woman enemies!!

Fantastic video thanks Cliff. The area is so lovely and green. The ponds were lovely. Can imagine all the tadpoles in there. Thanks for taking me along. Please take care

Thanks Cliff.

Snakes go in water . Something I didnt know.Nice ponds

thanks Cliff wonderful place. nice hike🥾

Hubby says watch for rattlesnakes in that Area......they go in for frogs. They had a photo on KZfaq they found around the pool at Caledonia. It was Huge! There are a lot of rattlesnakes above Caledonia....Rocky Knob.

Hey. In my backyard again. Hope you had a great time.

They are up on Tumbling Falls Run also on 233. County border,near top of rocks. Watch for rattlesnakes.

Hey Cliff. Appreciate your observation of the different plant species. There’s an interesting restoration project going on in Southeast Pa. Called Pink Hill Serpentine barrens. Thought ya might appreciate. Thanks for sharing

Ohhh loved the ponds. would be fun to have an underwater cam to see what in the ponds. That huge dragon fly was unique. I've never seen one that huge and I am 69 this year. God Bless 🙏🙏🌺🏞

There's some amazing ponds on the west side of mt Cydonia sand quarry on 997...those ponds can be accessed by following the trail along the creek...several of those ponds hold extremely large bass...

Been looking at that spot on the lizard map. Was reluctant to go since it showed no trails. Thanks for taking us. 👍🙂🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟

On my hike yesterday I had a fly circle my head for a mile.. my watch tracked me as having a vigorous aerobic workout from all the swatting 😅

Is the dragonfly laying eggs, perhaps😊

Great video love the ponds dragonfly was cool too ty Steve On To The Next YES PLEASE 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ IT

Hi Cliff and everybody els.. I alsways hear these birds in Cliffs Videos these from 8:30 until 9:00 Also i can remember they were upset when Cliff talks about Sasquatches and Bigfoot then in 2019.. and they followed him after then.

Nice sharing Vidio.. very inspiring and useful.. God Bless You 🇮🇩😍♥️👍👍

I kept waiting for the creature from the black lagoon to pop out. That one pond with the glass like surface and the other side of it was stagnant was beautiful. I never saw such a big dragonfly. As you were walking down the road near the end it looked like something was crossing the road way behind you. I noticed it a couple of times a certain way you were turned. Probably just my imagination, but you never know. This was nice,even with the bugs.❤❤❤

That noise was HIDEOUS. That's one park I won't visit.

A swamp monster

Just warning you! You wouldn't expect it ,I know!

It looked like someone was walking on the road some distance behind you as you were walking out to jeep.

Surprised by all the leaves on the ground, means you aren't sneaking up on anything unless it is deaf or dead. And yes place like this tend to be bug heavens which often means being eaten alive. Be nice to the bumble bee.

the bugs were rather pesky. I guess because the ponds are seasonal turtles and frogs don't live in them

What kinda camera do You use to record ? And do you know what kind of dragon fly that was ?

I looked snakes up on Google but none match him.
