With increasing demand for wood products in early 19th-century America, loggers found their way to the area\u2019s stately trees. At the time, white pine and hemlock <a href=\"https:\/\/lumberheritage.org\/news-updates\/the-lumber-era-of-pine-creek-gorge\/\" rel=\"noopener\">several feet in diameter<\/a> and towering hardwoods populated the slopes around Pine Creek Gorge. The pines were especially valued for making ship masts, and hemlock bark was used to tan leather. Before railroads, logs were floated down Pine Creek to the Susquehanna in massive drives. By the early 20th century, decades of logging left the land so barren that the area earned the moniker \u201cPennsylvania Desert.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The forest has since returned, and with it, <a href=\"https:\/\/elibrary.dcnr.pa.gov\/GetDocument?docId=3816698&amp;DocName=FD16%20Tioga%20Pine%20Creek%20Gorge%20Natural%20Area%20factsheet.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\">wild inhabitants<\/a> such as black bears, coyotes, bobcats, timber rattlesnakes, and a diversity of songbirds.
