Outside the Visitor Center, 3 separate food plots and viewing areas offer visitors an excellent chance to observe real live elk doing real elk things! Several massive food plots dominate the scenery here, and provide ample grazing for the elk that usually fill these fields in the early morning and late afternoon. Located 0. Approximately 0. Dents Run Elk Viewing Area features a small picnic area, a pavillion, and some benches, all overlooking a large food plot. Another reliable elk viewing area in Benezette is the Moshannon State Forest Viewing Area , located directly behind but across the river from the Benezett Store.

A large gravel parking lot is located next to the bridge over Sinnemahoning Creek, behind the Benezett Store. A 5 minute walk along a trail through the woods brings you out on the edge of this large food plot. A large viewing blind looks out over a massive food plot that is almost always a good bet to see elk near dusk or dawn.

The view from near the parking area is of a large field on the opposite side of Sinnemahoning Creek. An unmarked trail off the lower-back edge of the parking lot leads downhill, across an old railroad bed, to the banks of the creek itself. An interesting roadside attraction between Miller Run Viewing Area and Driftwood is this Tom Mix plaque , dedicated to the locally-born film star of the early s, Tom Mix.

The large food plots which dominate the mountaintop here are often surrounded in the mornings by dense valley fog that forms over the various branches of Sinnemahoning Creek. A large viewing blind offers a sheltered view of the food plot at Hoover Farm where elk, deeer, and a variety of wild birds are regularly seen. In the western part of the Sproul State Forest, the area around Round Island Run Falls is fertile ground for encountering elk while hiking to a picturesque 3-tiered waterfall. The adjacent Russel P.

Yost Run Falls is a great hiking destination in its own right. While Fields Ridge Road winds its way 6 miles through the forest, dead-ending at a magnificent overlook. Numerous food plots are scattered throughout Quehanna, and the multitude of trails that criss-cross it all have the potential to lead to elk sightings. The Kunes Camp Trail is an easy, relatively flat, 1 mile hike through open woods making it easy to spot trailside elk and other wildlife , ending up at an abandoned hunting camp built between two massive boulders.

Another favorite hike of mine in this area is the hike to the abandoned nuclear jet engine testing bunkers , the remnants of a secretive Cold War-era base that once operated here. Aside from being a fascinating part of the history of this area, the clearings where the bunkers now sit silent are also a potential spot to catch a glimpse of the local elk population. State Game Lands comprises 21, acres spread across Centre and Clearfield counties.

But this list gives you a nice sampling of different areas and different types, ranging from roadside viewing blinds to off trail wilderness spots.
