North of Jerseytown, the dirt covered roads passing through State Gamelands #226 will give you a great chance to see deer and other wildlife. Along your travels, be sure to stop at old Katy’s Church to see a classic example of a rural countryside church. And for an unforgettable view of the valley below, take Teaberry Road heading north to connect with State Route 442. As the year draws into late October, it’s time for the southern parts of the counties to shine. On Sunday, October 23rd, Weiser State Forest - Roaring Creek Tract will continue its annual tra- dition of opening the Roaring Creek Trail to vehicle traffic for one day only. Visitors may travel the road to enjoy beautiful fall foliage. The trail will be one-way traffic only, and will start on the Route 42 side of the tract and end at the parking area on the Route 54 side. Entrance gates will open from 9:30 AM - 2:00 PM; vehicles must exit the 8-mile trail by 3:00 PM. And of course, the area’s 25 iconic covered bridges are a MUST see during fall foliage season each year. With about half of the bridges located in the northern parts of the counties and half in the southern ends, there will be plenty of time throughout October and early November to capture the trees’ stunning brilliance alongside the historic wooden spans. To locate each bridge in the counties, request or download a free copy of the Covered Bridges of Columbia & Montour Counties brochure by visiting: itourcolumbiamontour.com/request-a-brochure.
