Climb At Chickies Rock
From parking at the fairly new lot on Furnace Road, head down river on the walking trail about a half mile to an obvious large face next to the train tracks. From here you choose from a variety of routes including some two pitch routes like Witches’ Brew 5.4 to Main Street 5.5 over to some of the overhanging routes to the right. The right side is better protected for leaders, but all routes can...
Climb at Safe Harbor
Directions: Drive to Safe Harbor. From Safe Harbor, take River Road south to Green Hill Road--this road is very windy. Drive towards Shenk's Ferry Wildflower Preserve. When you reach the tunnel, park on either side of the tunnel. There isn't too much parking here so I'd suggest carpooling.The trailhead is located on the uphill side of the tunnel, right next to the tunnel. Hike up and over the t...

The parking lot can be tricky to find your first time. From I-81 Take Tower City exit on Rt. 325 W. Before airport, take Gold Mine Rd south over first major ridge. After ridge look for a driveway/parking lot on the left, it is the one just downhill of the big wide open parking lot. The road has a gate across it, where hunters also park. Note: There a numerous gates along this road. The coords...
Climb at Birdsboro Quarry
To get there follow back roads to the parking lot that is tagged in the description. From here, follow the trail/road paralleling Hay Creek until you reach a few large buildings. There is an obvious sign here on the regulations of the area. Do not go through the fence to the right and instead keep close to the walls on the left side.
There is an easier to get there by parking at Rustic Par...

Explore Mill Creek Falls
It's not too hard to find the Mill Creek Falls; you can see it from the parking lot. This is an ideal spot if you just need a quick fix of something beautiful.
From the road, follow the blue blazes of the Mason-Dixon Trail up the hill. After you admire and photograph the falls, consider hiking the roughly 2-mile loop through the woods for some tough climbs and gorgeous glimpses of the Susqueha...
