I spent a summer mapping Potter County by HariSeldon

One summer I was paid to map and collect samples all over Potter county. There is not a spot in Potter county that I have not been within one mile.

I wound up married because of that project. And always wanted to return and start a reseach park there.

Just watch out for the timber rattlers, it can be up to a 75 mile drive to the hospital.

Potter by Peggy Hill

LOL. Yes, I will admit that I have been here. It is a very calm and relaxing area unless the Regis family is in town or it is hunting season.
