Letchworth State Park: Exploring the Geology, Beauty of Western New York; Flintknapping arrowheads!

Join us on an epic adventure as we explore the geology and natural beauty of Letchworth State Park, a breathtaking natural area located in western New York. From the cascading waterfalls and ancient riverbeds to the abundance of flint and other materials prized by ancient paleoindian flintknappers, Letchworth is a treasure trove of geological wonders. As we delve deeper into the geology of the region, we'll discover the diverse range of rock formations that make Letchworth such a unique and special place. From sedimentary rocks like flint and shale to metamorphic rocks like quartzite and onondaga chert, Letchworth has it all. But it's not just the geology that makes this place special - the park is also home to some of the most breathtaking cliffs and waterfalls you'll ever see. The Genesee River Gorge, which runs through the park, is home to three stunning cascades, each with its own unique character and beauty. Whether you're looking for a peaceful place to relax or an adrenaline-pumping adventure, Letchworth has something for everyone. While we're in the park, we'll take a break to enjoy some delicious ice cream and soak in the breathtaking views. But our adventure doesn't stop there! After leaving the park, we'll head out into the surrounding area to collect chert, a type of rock that is perfect for flintknapping. However, we'll be sure to emphasize the importance of never collecting from state parks or other protected areas, as it is crucial to preserve these places for future generations to enjoy. With our chert in hand, we'll return to our campsite to put our flintknapping skills to the test, using the chert to craft an arrowhead. Whether you're an experienced flintknapper or just interested in exploring the great outdoors, this episode has something for everyone. So pack your bags and join us as we adventure and flintknap at Letchworth State Park!
