Who owns them? I've run across many a DCNR employee that acts like they own the property. McIntyre Road (a left off Rock Run) was closed for a while because it went into the wild area. Several hundred signed a petition to have it re-opened. It didn't make sense loosing access to an area that had been open for years, especially when the gas industry can go wherever they want to. I'm already seeing a pattern. Some existing roads have been closed off after the gas industry pulls out of the area. A fresh gate blocks access for everybody. DCNR claims it's due to liability because of the new wells. I guess that answers our question doesn't it?

The mineral rights owner owns them. The surface owner has no rights. Strange as that sounds, that is the way it works. I asked my representative about split estates three years ago and to the best of my knowledge nothing has changed.

I have been going too Pince Creek since 1960 to and its just not the same, retired and move too Florida but miss the mountains but love the ocean and when I do come up and head for the Pine Creek Valley and the mountains all I run into is trucks, Drillers,pipelines everything just change. Who would ever think Damm Run road would be paved and up on top on Peter it,s a industrial site and above Waterville it.s a shame!

I agree 100%. I work in the gas industry, but I am opposed to drilling on state land. If land owners want to drill on their own land that is their choice. I see no reason to drill in rock run. I have spent lots of time up there, and as I get older I enjoy taking my boy up there.
