Ski Routes after Snowstorms
Immediately after significant snowfalls, parking areas for access to McDade Trail, may be snow-sovered until snowplows can clear them.

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.

Immediate conditions can be obtained by calling Dispatch at (570) 426-2435.

Sledding and snowboarding are not permitted on the grounds of Cliff Park in Pennsylvania.
