PPL Construction Project Completed - PPL’s construction project to upgrade their Sunbury-Dauphin electric transmission line which crosses the Appalachian Trail approximately 1/2 mile north of PA Route 225 (at approximately mile 1157.0) has been completed.  The new towers and new lines are up and working.   If you will be hiking to “shock rocks” or beyond during the next two months, please be advised that the condition of the maintenance road into the rocks is in terrible condition.  You will either encounter deep mud and standing water or slippery ice and frozen conditions.  PPL will be returning in the spring to repair the damage the truck traffic has done to the road, but until then be aware of the poor conditions.  

Save The Date - SATC will hold its annual Banquet & Membership Meeting on March 29, 2019 at the VFW in New Cumberland beginning at 6:00 PM.  Additional detail will be shared in the March edition of the Bushwack Bulletin and in our weekly Trail Mail.  

SATC To Turn 65 - In April, SATC will turn 65!  A few contests will be announced in the upcoming edition of the Bushwack Bulletin!  Get your hiking shoes ready!
