Bill, our website has lodging listed. No matter where you stay in Tunkhannock you will be 20 minutes away, tops. Skyline Hotel has the cheapest rates. There is also Shadowbrook Inn and Resort and they are reasonable too. Hampton Inn and Comfort Inn are there too and cost more than the Skyline and Shadowbrook. Usually if you tell them at Shadowbrook, Hampton or Comfort that you are staying for an event at Rock Mountain they will work out a discount. Hope this helps.

Maybe one of these days my friend Craig will discover Fox smallbores. Any classic American maker's upland gun will go bang but many serious uplanders would agree that none have the simple but rugged mechanics and sexy looks of the Fox. I'm reminded here of the story about two young sisters told by Jack O'Connor. I paraphrase: one girl was attractive enough, even temperament, thrifty, a good cook and would make a good wife, mother and homemaker. The other had much the same qualities but was a lithe and raving beauty who had young men dreaming, fantasizing, singing outside her window and howling in the night. Their difference in look was only from a touch or two here and something there. And so it is with Fox smallbores.

I’ve owned several Sterlingworth small bores and honestly shot them as well as anything else . I could be swayed by a Sterlingworth or A grade 20 with 32” barrels .
