Bee Tree Ski Connector Trail

The Bee Tree Ski Connector Trail at Tioga State Forest in Gaines, Pennsylvania is an easy 0.1-mile one-way trail that connects both the Bee Tree Ski Trail and the Deadman Hollow Run Trail.

This trail is a great alternative to hiking a small section of the Bee Tree Ski Trail adjacent to here because of very wet ground - essentially a creek that flows down the Bee Tree Ski Trail - all times of the year. The trail flooding is especially bad during warmer months and just after heavy rainfalls or during snow melt.

This trail includes a fork closest to the Deadman Hollow Run Trail. One part of the fork is very short while the other is about 100-feet long before it connects back to the Deadman Holllow Run Trail.
