WEATHER HEADLINES

WFMZ's Karin Mallett is back on the road, bringing us a new season of her popular series "One Tank Trip." Each week, she'll take us somewhere with a unique flavor of the season. And, the best part is, you'll still be able to make a roundtrip on one tank of gas or less. Click on the "Read more..." link below for more information on each of Karin's trips from summer, spring, the holiday season and the fall.  Do you have an idea for a "One Tank Trip" destination?  Simply click here to email your suggestion to Karin.

 

The Tubs (7/19/06) PDF Print E-mail
You'll truly be amazed by The Seven Tubs Nature Area in Luzerne County.  Get a close-up view of seven large "potholes," or "tubs," gouged out of the Pocono formation by Wheelbarrow Run.  Geologists believe they were formed more than 10,000 years ago.

The tubs opened to the public in 1992.  They are part of a 532 acre site owned by Luzerne County, and are located in the Laurel Run Valley between Wyoming and the Wilkes-Barre Mountains about four miles southeast of downtown Wilkes-Barre. 

Phone 866-544-7275 for more information.
