The Gunpowder whips me again
You can do a bike shuttle between Glencoe and Sparks

Not the best place, but it is a place for trout in the middle of summer
The Gunpowder is still running crisp and cold this late in the summer
Big Falls is a great section of the Gun sporting plenty of superb looking water

Looks dead here – promising upstream
Big Falls Road looks like a nice access point – but it is not as scenic as the Prettyboy section
No trail, walk in the river – but might be pressured
You have to dodge plenty of tubers to fish this wild trout section
