    Or if you have kids you can do Hawk Mountain, lots of fun for the whole family with great views.



    Some awesome views







    And for the adults some "difficult" trails



    Yup those rocks are the trail


    Looking down from a little ledge to my cousin going down the trail


    Hope these help!

    Yeah the view from the top of blue MT over looking Palmerton is awsome but the climb up or down the mile high rock sramble is freakin HARD. theirs some nice views from Bake oven Knob, Wolf rocks looking into Duncannan is really nice.

    I have now section hiked the AT from Damascus to Central NH, short of 100 miles in VT that I had to skip last fall due to Hurricane Irene

    PA is brutal, although I live in Philly, would rather drive further North or South to avoid the rocks............NOT FUN

    I tell people the AT is NO TRAIL like they are visualizing. Its rugged, especially in PA.

    The trails are not too bad in PA. Yes there are rocks but they are not bad.

    Maybe it is because I hike the AT at least twice a week, almost all season unless we get a really bad snow storm.

    Some recent trail pictures taken between Route 309 and Bake Oven Knob (sorry for the quality I used my Blackberry cell phone).

    My favorite part of the AT in Pennsylvania is from the Maryland state line through the Cumberland Valley. Not too many rocks and lots of variety in the scenery (various hardwood and pine forests, and farmland and small towns). Pine Grove Furnace State Park has a free swimming beach right next to the trail. I live about an hour from this area and I return to hike it all the time. I never get tired of it.
