Skiing Hazard
by Mark Peterson
Hazard Run, a local ski slope no longer in operation, has a rich history that dates to the early 19th century. The story begins in 1808 with a partnership between Josiah White and Erskine Hazard in Philadelphia. Their business ventures eventually grew into the Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company (LCNC) in 1822. By the late 19th century, LCNC had significantly expanded its land holdings, encompassing 45,000 acres in the Pocono Plateau.
In 1941, LCNC designated a large portion of that land to develop Split Rock Lodge and Cottages, a hunting and fishing retreat for company executives on the shores of Lake Harmony. The following year, a modest ski run named Hazard Run after Erskine Hazard was laid out from the summit near the split rock formation. It featured an elevation of 2,060 feet (628 m) and a vertical drop of 250 feet (76 m). In 1946, a second and larger trail was carved from nearby Lake Mountain, known as Big Boulder. Both ski slopes

were initially managed by the Split Rock Ski Club until Big Boulder was sold in 1947, becoming Pennsylvania’s first commercial ski resort.
Hazard Run remained part of the resort as Split Rock Ski Area and ski packages were offered to guests staying at the Lodge. For many years, it operated as a typical resort-run ski area with two short slopes where skiers were pulled uphill by rope tows. A toboggan chute ran the length of the slope, and snowmaking equipment ensured consistent skiing conditions. In
1963, a T-bar and J-bar replaced the rope tows and an upgraded T-bar system was introduced in 1968. After Vacation Charters Limited acquired the resort in 1981, the ski area was expanded to

cover 40 acres with six trails serviced by a double chairlift and the T-bar in 1983.
I remember learning how to ski at Hazard Run in the 1960s. I was eight years old, and it took me several tries before I could ride the T-bar without crumpling into a mess of skis and poles askew. In later years, when Lon Schultz was running the ski school, we enjoyed night skiing on Fridays. It was a fun time, with hot chocolate in the Quonset hut at the base of the mountain
for the kids and wine for the adults. On those evenings, we skied a “torchlight parade,” with a line of skiers holding flares in each hand as we traversed back and forth down the darkened slope. (It was fun until you noticed the burn marks on your ski jacket.)
Although it was a place where fond memories were made, little Hazard Run couldn’t compete with the “Big Two” ski areas, JFBB. After 62 years of operation, the decision was made to close the Split Rock Ski Area at the end of the 2003-2004 season. Today, people can be seen sledding down the hill when there is snow on the ground. It is also a great place for summer festivals or for hiking up to Split Rock to enjoy the impressive views.
Speaking of impressive, have you seen the selection of winter sports equipment at Peterson’s Ski and Cycle in Blakeslee? You’ll find snowshoes, cross-country and downhill skis, snowboards, clothing, goggles, souvenirs, hoodies, toys, bikes, and more at this iconic Pocono Mountains family business that has been serving the area for over 30 years. Not ready to commit to the skiing lifestyle? Peterson’s Ski and Cycle offers rental equipment at prices lower than those at local ski areas.

LHVFC hosts first life-saving blood drive
Lake Harmony Volunteer Fire Co. is proud to announce its upcoming blood drive, an event dedicated to saving lives and supporting the health and well-being of our community. The blood drive will take place on Friday, February 7, from 12:30 to 5 p.m., at the Lake Harmony Fire Company, 257 Lake Harmony Road, Lake Harmony, PA 18624.
This critical initiative is being held in partnership with the American Red Cross, aiming to address the ongoing need for blood donations in our area. Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood, and one donation can save up to three lives.
“As first responders, we witness firsthand the importance of having a readily available blood supply,” said Krystal Fiorito, Firefighter/EMT, Pediatric Emergency Coordinator and Blood Program Leader. “Hosting a blood drive is a natural extension of our mission to protect and serve. It’s an opportunity for our neighbors to come together and make a meaningful impact on the lives of others.”

January ice harvest on if weather holds
The Annual Tobyhanna Millpond #1 Ice Harvest is planned for Saturday, January 25, from approximately 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., provided we have sufficient ice. Come out and see how ice was harvested over a century ago. All are welcome to help cut ice, guide the ice cakes to the icehouse, and store the ice in the icehouse.
Walker, owner
As of late December, we had about 3″ of ice on the millpond, but a weather forecast for a cold January. For the past two years, the ice was too thin for harvesting. Last winter, in late January, we had only 3″ of ice, and the previous year, the ice was barely 1″ thick on the harvest date. The ice had been 10″ thick in late December that year, but it completely melted in less than a week. On the other hand, during the winter of 2021/22, the lake did not freeze over until January 3, and we had 16″ of ice for the harvest later in January.
This free event is organized by the Leonard/Saxe families with financial support from the Coolbaugh Township Historical Association.
Check the Ice Harvest Hotline at 570-894-8205 for updates on ice conditions.
It's the perfect time to embrace change and explore new beginnings. Whether you're dreaming of a cozy cabin in the woods or the perfect lake house for family gatherings, a fresh start in a new space can bring endless opportunities. Let's make this year one of growth, adventure, and happiness. Feel free to contact me directly and I will open the door for you.

The cover shot was of Nick’s Lake House, taken by Anne Martino, showing a snow covered lodge reflected in the icy lake. The building looked far different than it does today, clearly showing its roots as the Lake Harmony Lodge.
As always, 18624 provided a wealth of information about what was happening at The Lake 25 years ago. For example:
McGinley’s hosted their annual Christmas party on Sunday night, December 19th.
The Mountain’s Edge, formerly the Blue Heron Grille, reopened in November. They have their liquor license and have Happy Hour from 5 to 7 PM, Monday through Friday.
Hope and Marty Frankel flew south on Christmas Day and embarked on a Caribbean cruise with ports of call in San Juan, St. Lucia, Curacao and Aruba. What a great way to ring in the new Millennium!

The Kidder Township superevisors were dealing with Act 537 Plan issues, calling for the installation of a sewer system for all properties (in Lake Harmony) except thos in the Split Rock developments. Each housing unit was to have agrinder pump installed, with treatment at the Big Boulder waste water treatment plant. Estimated cost was $7 million.
Holiday Pocono/Albrightsville and Pocono Mountain Lake Estates were surveyed, but it determined to be economically unsound to be sewered.
Gluck to head Kidder Twp. Supervisors; hearing for volunteer service held
by Ruth Isenberg
Ray Gluck was tapped to retain his position as chair of the Kidder Township Board of Supervisors by unanimous vote at their January 6 reorganization meeting. Wilson Klotzman will serve as vice-chairman.
Klotzman was also appointed as roadmaster.
Atty. Robert Yurchak was reappointed township solicitor, with an annual retainer of $6,000 and an hourly rate of $100. He was also appointed as Planning Commission solicitor.
Cindy Norato was approved as secretary/ treasurer with a $200,000 bond, and manager Suzanne Brooks was named assistant secretary/ treasurer, also with a bond of $200,000.
ARRO Engineering was named township engineers on a split vote, with supervisor Bruce Berger voting no, and Gluck, Klotzman, Torres and Louis Pantages voting yes.
Meetings were set for 5:30 p.m. on the fourth Tuesday of each month. Berger voted no, preferring the fourth Thursday at 5 p.m. The solicitor will be consulted, and it may be changed if he is available then.
In a special meeting supervisors approved incurring a lease not to exceed $91,240.69 for a 2025 Ford Police Utility Vehicle.

There were few comments on the proposal. Charlotte Blackwell asked if the program was active in any other local townships. Gluck said that it was, and the solicitor used some of the data from those areas to set up the Kidder program.
Eugene Getz, of Albrightsville Volunteer Fire Company, noted that he is no longer able to fight fires because of his health. He asked if he was still eligible for the program.
Supervisor Noel Torres answered that the program was designed so that board members in good standing, who participate in fundraising and maintenance of the company, would be eligible.
Blackwell asked if the number of required hours of service would be spelled out. Gluck said that details would be included in a resolution that would be adopted at a future meeting.
Pricing actions part of balanced approach under “Delivering for America,” the Postal Service’s 10-year plan for achieving financial sustainability and service excellence.
Rate changes will support the $40 billion of investments in people, technology, and infrastructure and continue the modernization and improvement of the Postal Service’s operations and customer experience.
As we previously announced, the Postal Service will not be raising prices
in January for our Mailing Services, therefore, the price of a First-Class stamp will remain unchanged.

raise Shipping Services prices approximately 3.2 percent for Priority Mail service and Priority Mail Express service, 3.9 percent for USPS Ground Advantage and 9.2 percent for Parcel Select.
Although Mailing Services price increases are based on the consumer price index, Shipping Services prices are primarily adjusted according to market conditions. The governors believe these new rates will keep the Postal Service
competitive while providing the agency with needed revenue. As we previously announced, the Postal Service will not be raising prices in January for our Mailing Services.
As a strategic part of the Delivering for America 10-year plan, these proposed changes will support the Postal Service in creating a revitalized organization capable of achieving our public service mission — providing a nationwide, integrated network for the delivery of mail and packages at least six days a week — in a cost-effective and
financially sustainable manner over the long term, just as the U.S. Congress has intended.
The PRC will review the changes before they are scheduled to take effect. The complete Postal Service price filing, with prices for all products, can be found on the PRC website under the Daily Listings section at prc. gov/dockets/daily.
