Jim Thorpe is an interesting town known for labor disputes, excellent white water rafting, Asa Packer (railroad tycoon) had a mansion here that is now open for the public to go through and it's also home to my favorite pizza joint, although I have forgotten the name! I will say that overnight accommodations are lacking...surprising for a town that has a high tourist population.

PS. The views coming from Lehighton into Jim Thorpe are stunning!!!
