Description
This is a really unique climb because it is in a gully that has perfect straight up and down sides it almost looks like someone cut it with a giant saw.
Getting There
From Dingmans Ferry ( Intersection of PA-739 and US-209) go south on US-209 for 0.2 miles. Turn right onto Johnny Bee Mountain Road. From here the road forks, go left at the fork and travel another 0.5 miles from to the visitor center. This is considered to be the access road. This road maybe closed from time to time in the winter. If it is you just have to park at the gate and walk up the access road 0.5 miles to the visitor center.
From the visitor center head right and you will see a board walk path leading into the forest. Silverthread Falls will be the first water fall you come to. Climb over the railing and up to the start of the climb. To the left there will be an ice curtain named "Silver Sheet".
To see if the access road is open you can call 570-588-2435. They will be able to tell you if it is open and if people have been climbing there.
