DD- and I went camping with a group of friends to Promised Land State Park in Pennsylvania. Like usual, we brought our mountain bikes with us.
While the overall camping trip was a blast, the riding there completely sucks. If you are even the slight be curious and thinking of checking it out, do not waste your gas or time.
The legal trails there for mountain biking consist of dirt roads with 3/4" Quarry Process along with some grass covered sloppy crappy mud trails next to swamps. These trails are actually located in the Delaware State Forest section (adjacent to Promised Land).
I don't understand the land managers in PA -- they tend to put the mountain bikers on the same trails that snowmobiles (and ATVs) can go.
The trails that are most like the stuff that we actually ride is, of course, restricted to hiking only. Those trails are located in the Bruce Lake Natural Area. Even those were covered in dead fall.
Well, anyway, don't waste your time. Those trails blow big time. Camping was good, though -- bring the kayaks.
