Ice Climbing! What a "crazy" sport! Many people don't realize
some of the best Ice Climbing in Western Pennsylvania can be had right here in the ANF,
just off rt 59 (literally right off!) at the Kinzua Dam on the Allegheny Reservoir. Nearly
every weekend there is ice, there are climbers from Pittsburgh, Jamestown, Buffalo, and
even Ohio or further who trek to the dam to climb the frozen ice flows there.

The following is a video tour of ARG that was added to our Media Gallery. American Refining Group (ARG) in Bradford, PA is the world's oldest and continuously operating refiner of Pennsylvania crude oil.
Well, let me restate that, I don't mean water power like in a water wheel that ran many local mills in the late 1800's! I mean separating Hydrogen from Oxygen as in H2O and burning the Hydrogen. And either "throwing out" the Oxygen or using it to enhance the burning of the Hydrogen. Since we start with water (H2O) and use the Hydrogen and Oxygen, I call that "Water Power"!
A mother, a US citizen has lost her 4 year old child Marissa who is also a US citizen
and both are not a Seneca Nation Indian nor do they reside on the reservation but a tribal
court that does not have to follow the same constitutional or legal laws as the rest of us
in the US has unfairly and unjustly sided with the father who IS a Seneca Indian.
The court was unfairly biased in the fathers behalf because he is an Indian and the mother
wasn't, so her case was disregarded, she had to follow rules the father didn't in the
court room and was unfairly limited in presenting her case while the father wasn't.
