Leaser Lake, November 28, 2020

I watched the sunrise the morning from the shores of Leaser Lake located near the Village of Jackson in Lynn Township, Pennsylvania. The 117 acre lake is named after Frederick Leaser who was an American patriot. Leaser transported the Liberty Bell from Philadelphia to Allentown in the year 1777 for protection during the Revolutionary War. There’s a four mile loop that goes around the entire lake with great views and variation in scenery from lake views to woods to meadows. I hiked the loop today and the lighting and scenery was beautiful. There’s plenty of wildlife to see here. It’s a great place to come if you’re a bird watcher and there’s an information board near the south parking area listing which birds to look for. I really enjoyed the morning here and will definitely be back again.
