Did two runs in two days, both started at blackwell, and continued south for around 15 miles and 17 miles on consectutive days. Just an absolute scenic route, i've been north to the canyon and ansonia, lovely either way. Saw deer, foxes, snakes, etc. Just wonderful to watch nature at its fines, plus getting in a great workout. The highlight of the ride was by far was seeing the timber rattlesnake crossing the bike path on the way back on the second day. I had gone about 27 miles and did not see any snakes of any kind, then boom, i saw a garter, another garter, then boom, the beautiful timber rattler was crawling on its way. Everyone kept their distance, took their photos and let it be. Bunch of other people had scene some too that day. Just a great ride for everyone.

I went from jim thorpe to rock port and back, around thirty miles, just spectactular. I'm one of these days going to do the whole trail from jt to white haven and back when i have the time. Next i'm going from withe haven to rockport and back. Loved the scenes, saw a large watersnake, snakes don't bother me regardless of type, and just missed seeing a bear. awesome trail
