According to David Jackson,vice presi- dent of sales for the Pocono Mountains Convention and Visitors Bureau, “The Pocono Mountains are a four season destination with something for every- one - all the time!”
In the spring, Jackson says the Pocono Mountains are perfect for hiking. “With over 2,400-square miles of the great outdoors, guided or self-guided scenic trails offer fantastic views and become a natural classroom for education. Booking an all-terrain vehicle and scaling rocks and crossing streams can be a real thrill.”
In the summer he recommends giving whitewater rafting a try, saying that it is a great way to cool off and beat the heat. “You can go slow and gingerly or try your hand at going toe-to-toe with the mighty Delaware or Lehigh rivers. Another experience suited for summer is sky diving. Sky’s the Limit in East Stroudsburg offers an opportunity to get a bird’s eye view of the Pocono Mountains and leave with a memory that will last a lifetime.”
When it’s fall, the Pocono Mountains is best known for foliage, and the CVB even offers a “Fall Foliage Meter” on
www.poconomountains.comto help in planning a visit at the peak of the sea- son. “We are home to more than 127 varieties of trees. Amazing to the eye,” notes Jackson. In the winter, most people naturally think of skiing and snowboarding in the PoconoMountains.“Youmay not be thinking dog sledding or eagle watch- ing, but these are great team building experience,”he asserts.
