NIX, Chief Justice,
concurring.
I join in the majority opinion holding that extinguishment of an easement by deed can only be accomplished by acts hostile to the use encompassed by the easement. Mellace v. Armstrong, 469 Pa. 326, 365 A.2d 850 (1976); Stozenski v. Borough of Forty Fort, 456 Pa. 5, 317 A.2d 602 (1974). I write separately only to note that I would not foreclose the *367possibility of reliance on a natural barrier, coupled with acts adverse to the easement, in an appropriate case.
