A spree to Delaware National Scenic River is worthwhile; a fine close by hotel is RPAMI - Red Carpet Inn Milford.
If only every place had this much outdoors entertaining things, what a great globe it would be. The Flat Ridge Trail is a great hiking trail next to Gold Key Lake, and needless to say, this is a great neighborhood for folks who like lakes, Log Tavern Pond is a lake around here. A normal amount of precipitation falls here at Gold Key Lake; May is the month that gets the most rain; the driest of the months is February.

Shohola Creek
Raft??? First off, I cant see raft going through box canyon. It might be possible, but I wouldn't want to see someone I care about be the first. After the box, downstream of the route 6 bridge, you would need a lot of rain, I mean an awful lot of rain to get through the flat water section. Personally, I do some tough runs (CL4+) and I'm not sure I'd wanna be there with that much water. With plenty of water, medium level, we were scraping a lot in the flat water section. Also, in the canyon, if someone gets hurt, they are in for a bad day. This is evident by looking at a typo map or looking down from route three bridge. ''outside the state you might find the rivers here are more forgiving''. My travel for White Water is limited: NY, NJ, MA, CT, WV, MD, VT, NC. Never been out west. With my limited experience the above states and PA and 5 years kayaking including winter, I have no clue what the above quote means. Ratings CL1-5 (6 being a rating meaning it might not be runable), while far from perfect is a pretty good indication of water difficulty. Don't paddle here unless you know wha...
