Update on fallen tree

Joe Reams has advised that the fallen tree on the Black Bear Connector Trail has been cut & removed from the trail by DCNR as of today, October 23,2019. Thank You DCNR Employees for removing it. 

Tree down

Tree down on trail at Black Bear. 

Update: Joe Reams checked out the fallen tree and it is located on DCNR Property. So, he is referring it to DCNR Office at Black Moshannon today, Oct. 21, 2019. Joe did say there is a small trail around the fallen tree that people are using till DCNR cuts the large tree off the Black Bear Connector Trail.

Gillentown trailhead restrooms

Shawley Septic Services pumped out both tanks at Gillentown Trailhead Restrooms yesterday, October 17, 2019. Again, the hoses got plugged from debris thrown into the restrooms, plastic water bottles, wine bottles, beer & soda cans & bottles, plastic bags with garbage in them. $600.00 to pump out both tanks-your membership pays for this service. However, someday the service provider may not continue service and the restrooms may have to be closed. We certainly hope that does not happen. But, we need everyone's help to keep these storage tanks free from such garbage.
