South Mountain #1
Scan the map of the course posted there.
I've never played but it looks like lots of fun!
The first hole starts to the right of the board and this is where you begin.
You'll follow along this wooded course as it twists and turns through the park.
Stand in the front of hole 11.
Bear 138? through the woods.
To a trail intersection.
Choose the one that heads 145? .(At the tree with the vine scarred trunk)
Follow the downward winding trail.
A solitary rock sits just beyond
Two pines, their branches intertwined
33 paces from that stone
Take a heading of 294?.
Look through the woods.
For the tree with four trunks.
It's 34 paces from trail to tree.
Behind the tree is what you seek.
Return to the 11th hole.
Follow the course on through the 18th,
Which will bring you back
To the parking lot.

South Mountain #3
Bethlehem, PA. Northampton county
Planted 1-6-02 By See Joy
Directions: Rt. 378 to Mountain Drive North. Park is across from Lehigh
Valley PBS station.
Type: Moderate 1hr loop hike.

Capricious

Follow the clues for South Mt. #1 to, "(at the tree with the vine scarred trunk)".

Right shoulder to tree
62 degrees
Through the vines, to the pines
Here North should be your choice,
At the "T" 290
Can you hear the men playing their game?
With shouts of joy and pleasure
Sometimes with shouts of pain!,
At the "5 ways" choose 60
Is this hard "top" a road or a wall?
Humpty would not have been worried
For there is no where to go in a fall!,
At the "North" steps, saunter Southward
Up the single track
History laid waste in the young woods...
Beware "Single Trackers"!! who go fast!!,
Next choice for me was 60
Past the "Eiffel", but not far..
"Dead sheep" north in the trees
(that's what the Mennonites call them..)
Check this out if you'd please,
Past that huge conglomeration
To the road and an "airport tower"?
Now before the "lost boys" bridge & ladders
You should follow the ground lines of power...,
Between two trees the ridge top
On a rock you need to be standing
At the eastern base of the split rock (280)
Is where I have been planting!!

To the road, into the sunset
Not far to get you back
Not much time gets you closer
To the single track,
You've been here before, now 290
Up the hill at 260 degrees
At the "5" ways (292)
Past the white fleshed trees,
It's the tree "lined" trail you follow
To the older of two roads
240 heads you back to your car
And there you can do as you please!

Enjoy Life!! 'Box On!!
