Photography Spots In and Around Johnstown
Makenzie Croyle

This is a list of some of the best photography spots in and around Johnstown, Pennsylvania! I, personally, have visited all of these places. Most of these places are easily accessible, and enjoyable to visit.

Devil's Rock

Located in Johnstown, Devil's Rock gives you a lovely view of downtown. Following the path for a short hike through the woods, you'll be lead to a graffiti covered cliff face. Though the bustling city is below you, Devil's Rock offers a very peaceful view of the city of Johnstown.

Johnstown Incline Plane

The Incline Plane offers another spectacular view of the city, from a different perspective from Devil's Rock. Being the steepest incline in the world, taking a ride is a must! Not only is this a great photography spot, but it's a great opportunity to learn some of the history of the Johnstown Flood of 1889.

The Trolley Graveyard

Located in Windber, the Trolley Graveyard is one of a kind. Tucked back in the woods, there are 14 graffiti-covered trolleys that are a photographers dream. If you decide to venture to this wonderful site, be sure to watch for broken glass and other broken objects in and around the trolleys.

The Ghost Town Trail

With multiple entrances, the Ghost Town Trail stretches 36 miles through Indiana and Cambria counties. Not only is it a beautiful trail, many parts of it have a rich history; Vintondale, Wherum, and Claghorn are all old mining towns that the trail runs through. Take a bike ride, or hike down the trail, and don't forget your camera!

Greenhouse Park

Greenhouse Park is a small park located about three miles south of downtown. With the Stony Creek River running through the heart of the park, this offers plenty of opportunities to take photographs. With large rocks covering the riverside, the scenery is absolutely beautiful.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
