Summary

Description

Cucumber Falls — Here's a shot from Cucumber Falls, PA located in Ohiopyle State Park. The falls, about 30 feet hight, are located on Cucumber Run which is a tributary to the Youghiogheny River. "Water cascades over a lip of coarse-grained sandstone of the Allegheny Formation at Ohiopyle State Park. Beneath the sandstone, finer-grained rocks including shale and a thin coal bed are visible. The Allegheny Formation is an important coal-bearing formation in western Pennsylvania." (-PA DCNR).
