I never rode there, I heard its fun. Rausch Creek is down the road from there too. If you check out the video of the month you'll see what rausch is like. That's were I ride. It;s a blast.

My buddy and i were there a couple weekends ago. It was fun but make sure you don't go until you have skid plates. The trails we were on were very rocky and our skids took a beating. The trails lead to open areas where there are coal hills to climb and some other play areas. Was fun overall but we were thinking of trying Raush Creek next time since they also have a couple tracks to ride on as well.

You could also go to Paragon. If your going to ride at Paragon it is required that you have a flag. If you don't have one they can provide you with one. Also if you ride there tell them you are local, Hazleton, and it's cheaper...that's what we did.

I have been there a few times it is alot of fun well worth the cost of $35 for the first time there to try it out to see if you want to become a member Which i believe is $250 for the year and $100 more if you want a campgroud to use for that year. You are riding on coal dirt so if it hasn't rained in a while it well be very dusty and you will need to clean your air filter after riding there for a day. I was jsut there one week ago and was told they just renewed there lease of the property for 20 years on 9800 acres to ride on. You can ride any where you want on the 9800 acres the main trails are marked well but i you decided to explore of the mapped trial that is ok too. There are some coal pits and some large hill climbs like you have seen in the Hevos movies
Again i stress with the other member make sure you have full aftermarket skid protection cuz it is rocky ride smart and have fun bro

TC is Rausch Creek minus the tracks.

Do yourself a favor and hit Rausch Creek across the street. Rausch has some great tracks, playground, and a ton of trails hidden away out back. And, you can actually (not sure how legal) make your way from Rausch to TC if you we're daring enough.

Then again, hit the AT (Appalachian Trail) and you can make it to Maine or Georgia if you're daring enough. mhihi.gif

And yeah, if you're hitting the trails, as with most of PA (poconos), be prepared for super rocky conditions and plenty of black booger coal dust. blah.gif

I'm definitely going to be visiting this place over the summer.
