Mingo Creek

Mingo Creek

Photo by Nick Havrilla

Mingo Creek winds through Washington County's Mingo Park just south of Finleyville, Pennsylvania. This park hosts a great number of activities geared toward family fun.
This 2,600 acre recreational area lies among the hardwood forests of Western Pennsylvania. Native trees, maples, ash, dogwood, birch, oak, walnut, buckeye and elm thrive in this Appalachian Plateau region. In this marvelous Picture of the Day setting, the trees have given up most of their leaves, saving strength for a long, arduous winter.
