Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.
- John Muir
Open my eyes Lord that I might see wondrous things. Psalms 119:18

GREAT pics of the Keystone state Gary from Williamsport,PA.

James Bosenbeck		25-Feb-2016 03:56
Hi Curt - I just happened on your site an WOW ! You brought it all back. I was in Coudersport Oct. 1977 ? My Dad's friend had a cabin up there and took me along for some turkey hunting. We didn't get one but I was awed by the the scenery. Just magical for a 14 year old boy from NYC. It's a place that will always be in my heart, my soul and memories. I think about it often, and thanks to your wonderful pictures I can go anytime I want. Thanks !

Sharon Butler Traylor		04-Dec-2014 16:18
These pictures are beautiful. I don't get "home" to Coudy often enough. The pictures bring back memories.

Dave Prouty		14-Mar-2014 20:59
my name is David Prouty, son of Glenn Prouty, grandson Of Eva Arminda Prouty. All lived in Prouty Pa in the late 1800's and early 1900s. Dad was born in the log cabin on the prouty in 1902. Any info of any nature would be WONDERFUL. I have been to Prouty Park several times in my 70 years and will return this summer IF I CAN.... I Love God;s Country!!!!! It is In my blood. I am also looking for b urial spots of my kin.

You bring Potter County to life for those who aren't there through your camera.

paul miller		06-Dec-2011 22:51
Having lived in Germania for 10 years I have to say these are truly magnificent pictures. Rich vibrant colors, wonderful composition and beautiful lighting. Also having spent considerable time at Lyman Lake- including ice fishing - you have captured the lake in its many phases. Keep up the "clicking".

VSL		13-May-2011 13:52
367 gems ! I have thoroughly enjoyed seeing these.....spent a lot of time feasting on them !! Congrats.

Janet Remaly Ochodski		01-Mar-2011 18:46
I really enjoyed your Potter County pictures. I have fond memories of visiting this area with my family growing up. Prior to the CCC Cabin being relocated to the Museum, it was leased by a group of hunters, including my Dad, Harold. We had many adventures visiting God's County and staying at that very cabin!

Deborah Youngberg		19-Feb-2011 15:39
Thank you so much for your beautiful pictures of God's Country! It really is God's country! I enjoyed them all. I love to visit Potter County whenever I can, it is such a beautiful place to be!

Deborah Youngberg		19-Feb-2011 15:38
Thank you so much for your beautiful pictures of God's Country! It really is God's country! I enjoyed them all. I love to visit Potter County whenever I can, it is such a beatuiful place to be!

Such a lovely gallery. Potter County looks like such a peaceful, beautiful place.

Sharon Battaglia		23-Jan-2011 19:39
Your photos are just beautiful. I miss Coudersport so much and only get to be there a few times a year. So you make it so easy to enjoy all the sights. Thank you so much!

Federico D'Inc�		23-Jan-2011 00:34
Some fantastic images here !! v !!

Barb Hyde		08-Jan-2011 00:01
When I get too homesick for Potter County, I browse your wonderful galleries and leave refreshed. It is also comforting to know that painted lady's slippers still exist.

Guest		27-Nov-2010 00:49
Awesomely breathtaking photos. I am just sad that now that beautiful Potter county -- God's country -- will be littered with 450 ft industrial wind turbines. Industrial wind is not the solution to our energy problems. Wind needs conventional sources as backup and does not add more than a piddle of electricity, if at all. And the wind industry itself says they need 60 acres per megawatt. This amounts to enegy sprawl. To ruin our healing landscapes for a "feel-good, do-nothing measure" is a travesty.

Alex Cheung		19-Oct-2010 12:37
Beautiful gallery!!! -V-

Hans Chr. S�rensen		10-Oct-2010 05:22
Beautiful gallery. You have many good pictures.

Guest		23-Oct-2009 08:24
Thanks so much for your beautiful photography. I lived in Coudersport from 1988 to 1994. Lots of lovely memories. You are a great photographer. Ever think of adding pictures of the potato farms? Geri

Guest		17-Oct-2009 02:39
Thank you so much for the beautiful pictures. I've been to this area and desperately wanted to go this year (this weekend), Your work has made me miss it more, yet hope that I will yet again get to see this area.

Guest		02-Sep-2009 22:23
Thanks for the beautiful pictures kurt . I plan on going to potter cty. in the near future. Dale

Guest		25-Jul-2009 17:03
Hi Curt: Love your shots of Potter County. My family lived on Bark Shanty Road in Austin, just north of the dam, then we moved to Westfield in Tioga County, ending up in Sweden Valley, just a short distance from the 9th tee box on the golf course. Moved to NJ in 1958. I haven't been back since 1969, but your photos make me want to bring my wife to Potter in the near future. She has never been to "God's Country." Many thanks. Joe Phelps, Southern California

Guest		05-May-2009 21:47
As always, Curt brings out the beauty of Potter County. His photographs are breaktaking and should be displayed in a musuem of Natural History. Curt is very humble and I find that refreshing because so many want to expound on their own self-importance. Curt, you've found a place in the history of Potter County with your photographs. Keep up the good work. We're so proud of your accomplishments. Shirlee Leete

Todd E Burgess		13-Apr-2009 02:13
Curt, Most impressive..I love the contrast and depth that you are able to catch with your camera and imagination...Very impressive. Thank you for sharing....

Michele Gardner		13-Feb-2009 20:59
I am very impressed with the photos. It has been a few years sinse I have been out towards Grand Canyon PA....it was fun looking at the photos and remembering those places I have visited!!

Guest		19-Nov-2008 00:38
Curt is one of the most amazing photographers I have ever known. These photos are absolutely breathtaking! Thank you once again Curt for displaying the beauty of Potter County so magnificently. You will never cease to amaze me with your splendit work. Sincerely, Cathy Bowers oicm@zitomedia.net

Jo Ann		17-Nov-2008 14:24
Beautiful picures. i live in McKean Co. Would love to see some from there.

LynnH		07-Nov-2008 02:12
Wonderful stuff! I grew up near there and have many photos of similar views. Like the guest said, below... your beautiful gallery makes me a bit homesick. Happy to vote.

Guest		29-Jun-2008 07:26
My family has a cabin in Potter County and for the last 45 years, I've visited now and then. I logged onto the internet to see if I could find any information about Lyman Lake and to my surprise, stumbled upon your pictures. Great pictures! I've found what I was looking for and recognize all of the pictures........you should add some of Germania and Carter Camp too. Thanks for posting these!

Guest		16-May-2008 14:13
You made me homesick, Thanks for the beautiful pictures.
