Trail Overview
Pine Ridge Road is an up-and-back trail leading to a private property dead end. This trail is a typical state forest graded gravel road within Tuscarora State Forest. It comes off a main OnX Offroad mapped trail called Spectacle Gap Road. This trail has an abundance of oak trees and pine trees, providing ample shelter for wildlife and a surplus of food. There is a medium-sized parking area off this trail with a campsite that requires a permit to camp at the site. There is a picnic table at the site. The trail is easily traveled in the summer months but may become more difficult in winter due to snow and ice.
History
Due to deforesting the area during the 19th and 20th centuries, the CCC has provided replenishment to the forest near this trail. The DCNR has formulated many projects, including Oak tree regeneration programs, to help sustain wildlife habitat.
