worth stopping at, and while you're here, you could also stop by pretty Killams Pond. And if you're still looking for more outdoors entertaining things just keep reading. Go for a hike on the Crawford Trail, and if you have time,
Delaware National Scenic River is a national park worth taking a look at. Whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then we recommend Lackawaxen River, and you can stay the night at Camp Shohola. Lake Greeley
is a nearby lake that you could take a look at, and glorious hiking is available along the Maple Brook Trail. If you need a spot to stay The Lodge at Woodloch is a nice choice; enjoy a round of golf at Cricket Hill Golf Club.
And if that's not enough, there's plenty more to do in the vicinity of Selma Lake. There are great places to discover along the Steam Mill Trail, and the skiing at Ski Big Bear is wonderful. An average amount of rain falls at Selma Lake; most of the rain falls during May while February is commonly the driest month.

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... |
