This self-guided GPS audio tour is Part 1 of a 4-part eastbound Pennsylvania Turnpike series that eliminates highway boredom. It tells the incredible prehistoric tales of ancient Indians who once walked this trail, and the compelling historic dramas from the time that the cultures of American Indians and Europeans clashed here. This segment of the tour begins at the Pittsburgh turnpike entrance at Monroeville, ascends into the Allegheny Mountains, and ends atop them at the Somerset Travel Plaza. Your understanding of life here centuries ago will also reach a new plateau, I guarantee that!Together we will learn how to track game; how to find a husband, and what to say if we encounter any Indians – or even a Bigfoot – on the trail. We will pass the battlefield that helped seal the fate of Indians in this region. We’ll also be near the Flight 93 National Memorial if you wish to stop and make a pilgrimage to honor brave souls.If you enjoy this tour, check out parts 2, 3 and 4!
