I usually took 901 to lavelle and made a left at the turkey hill. a few more miles but you can go quicker and not have to go over those two mountains. There are a lot of small family run coal breakers over in that valley. Been a long time since I was over there.
I guess that would be quicker. The grades over the Mahantongo mountain are tough enough. The route over the Line mountain is rougher. Especially if you're going all the way to Shamokin. I don't think I have ever run down the Upper road in that valley.
