Devil's Potato Patch
This is the ultimate destination for #BoulderSunday photos! It is located in a hilly region near the Ridge Valley Creek and the Unami Creek in Salford Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. It's only a few minutes from where I grew up. I took a drive out there the other day with my Canon Rebel t6 and tripod, and I took enough photos for at least 10 more Boulder Sunday posts...; and Tree Tuesday posts, and Wednesday Walk posts, and Sublime Sunday posts, etc. for months to come!
I'll definitely be going back to that area to take even more photos. I didn't drive through even a small fraction of the area. The boulders have helped to keep this unique place pretty rural. It's undesirable to farm or build a lot of houses there. Salford Township is an open space township. They have minimum acreages for building homes. A lot of the township is permanently preserved. I used to go there often when I was in high school with friends to drink beer and smoke weed. Back then, it was mostly all stone roads. They have since been paved, but are still very narrow. I went up this one road, and I was screwed if there was a car coming the other way, because it's barely wide enough for 1 vehicle, and nowhere to pull aside for miles. I would have had to go a long way in reverse.
There is a camp in the area called Camp Green Lane. It has a big lake. I didn't stop in the camp to take photos because I believe it's private property, and there were hillbilly contractors staring at me when I drove by. I think the road through it is a public road, so I could have taken photos from the street. There are also power lines that run through the area. I have some totally wicked photos of that, and lots of photos of the creek, but this is a boulder post. I'll upload more pics later this week.
Oh crap! That's a lot of boulders😍
