Alright, so looks like I finally might make it back to PA to do some wheeling. I know that many here have made it up to Rausch Creek. What is a must hit? Looks like 2-3 days of wheeling. All the rigs going are built to be beat on. No one is scared of the skinny pedal.

Basically looking for some good crawling, some go fast, a little jumping, and some more fast crawling.
 
Main place to check out is the WEROCK competition course. It is pretty baller but do it on the last day. That course is hard on drivetrains.

There is a trail that is just rocks...literally. Imagine someone trying to pave a 4 lane highway with cabinet sized rocks. As you go along, the rocks get bigger. It is good.

Those are the only ones I can remember. Only other advice I can give to you is to prepare for LOTS of coal dust. Shit is everywhere. You might have black lung when you get out :flipoff2:

Rock river, jotters way, trail 5 hill.. there are more but i dont recall the names of the other trails.

stick to any black / red trails and you'll have a blast.
 
Unless you have a shitpile of lift and like to be wet - avoid the Fog Hole! It dosn't look that deep - but the "bottom is just really" loose sand/muck so vehciles get sucked in

And while the black coal dust is annoying, when it comes to wetness, I'll take the dark PA muck over NC red clay, esp when it comes to cleaning. The muck actually comes off w/ a hose.
 
Yea, the dark muck isn't nearly as slick as red clay. I think southern red clay is as close to a frictionless surface as you can get.
 
Let's see..

Shoot the Moon - short but nasty
Bad Idea
Otter's trail
There's some good optional stuff on trail 5...

Basically, like JPH said.. blacks & reds.

When ya going? I'm far from a trail guide though..
