Student thankful for new section of Back Mountain Trail

Dear Editor,

I am writing to thank the Anthracite Scenic Trails Association for the completion of the new 2.3 mile section of the Back Mountain Trail, which runs from the borough of Luzerne to Dallas.

I am a college student attending Wilkes University but I am also a resident of the Back Mountain and I know how much the trail means to some regular travelers of it.

Also, the members of the Back Mountain Trail Council do an excellent job of keeping the trail clear of leaves, snow and debris which makes for a safe and enjoyable walk. I hope more people would take a walk on the trail and experience the scenic beauty for themselves.
