Default Pennsylvania wheeling?

Does anyone know of any areas for wheeling in south eastern PA? I know some people go up to rausch creek but I truly despise sitting in lines and making people wait that I don't know. I also hate the prices lol. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Another thread on this topic that may help...

Trails in Pennsylvania


and unfortunately as you'll quickly come to find out there just isn't much legal wheeling in this area. Besides Rausch there's Reading Anthracite and the Pine Barrens in NJ...

Yea that seems to be the problem im running into. I just didn't know if anyone had some land around or knew of anything. I've heard about reading anthracite but I've never been there.

Lines at rausch?
Been going about 3 years now and there's no lines out on the trails but you might get some when you go into the office to pay.
It's worth the money though. If you break something and don't have the tools you can use the tools or even a welder from the shack just left of the main building.

Go on their website. The only thing with RA is the $100 per person permit. With 3 kids, that would be an expensive outing (although it would last all year).

RC is a good testing ground. You have two lines on the trails; good line and bad line. Oh and a third line when the FJs are there on Easter.
