Ski Routes after Snowstorms

Immediately after significant snowfalls, River Road, which provides access to McDade Trail, may be gated closed until snowplows can clear the road. Immediate conditions can be obtained by calling Dispatch at (570) 426-2435.

In prolonged snowy weather, Blue Mt. Lakes Road may be gated closed just past the Blue Mt. Lakes parking area. This enables skiers to safely ski along Blue Mt. Lakes Rd. and Skyline Drive, and to ski from Blue Mt. Lakes to the "Pool Colony" area, slightly east of Blue Mt. Lakes.

Did You Know?
... chief causes of water fatalities on the Delaware River are: (1) swimming without a lifejacket (PFD); (2) trying to swim across the river; and (3) swimming after drinking lots of alcohol. Wear a pfd and swim at lifeguarded beaches. DON'T drink-then-swim! NEVER TRY TO SWIM ACROSS THE RIVER!
