Welcome to Uncovering PA

I’m Jim Cheney, the creator, writer, and photographer of UncoveringPA.com, the first, most read, and most in-depth Pennsylvania travel blog. While there are sites out there that try to tell you the best things to do in Pennsylvania, most of them don’t actually visit the places they write about. However, I do! In fact, since starting this site in August 2013, I’ve spent more than 400 days traveling Pennsylvania and have visited well over 1,200 great destinations throughout PA. So, you can be sure that what you read on this Pennsylvania travel blog is based on my personal experiences and solid first-hand knowledge. Find out more about me and Uncovering PA here.
