Seven Tubs

The unique Seven Tubs Recreation Area features seven distinct potholes along Wheelbarrow Run which were formed by flowing glacial meltwater that eroded the sandstone bedrock. The flows have also cut deep gorges out of the surrounding landscapes, leading to a unique landscape within the Pinchot State Forest.
