Loyalhanna Walk

The Loyalhanna Watershed Association knows that many of its 2,500 miles of streams and rivers have been negatively impacted by things such as abandoned mine drainage and runoff from farmlands, but no one knows the extent of the damage.

DUQ's Mark Nootbaar accompanied members of the association on a recent trek through the area around Ligonier.
