This past week, I biked the Delaware and Lehigh Trail--a 140-mile towpath that parallels the Lehigh Navigation Canal, Lehigh Valley Railroad, and Delaware Canal from Wilkes-Barre to Bristol, Pennsylvania. These transportation and commerce channels were incredibly important to the region's economic development and stand today as a reminder of the prosperity and decline of America's Industrial Revolution. I explored fascinating towns, visited numerous historical landmarks, and biked across some beautiful scenery during my three days on the trail. This video is a summary of my experience. Enjoy!
