Pocono Mountains Magazine Premiere | February 2026

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

This month on the February edition of Pocono Mountains Magazine: join Deanna Fontanez as she trades skis for a snowboard and steps back into beginner mode to take on something completely new at Jack Frost Mountain. Stay out in the frosty weather for a snowshoeing adventure with Bri & Dee at Tobyhanna State Park, a winter experience offered by Naturfi.



Next, tag along with Brianna Strunk for a behind-the-scenes look at a paranormal investigation with Eric Mintel Investigates at The Deer Head Inn, the country's oldest continuously operating jazz club, located in storied Delaware Water Gap.



In an honest and heartfelt interview, Aaron Luburich, a director at the Himalayan Institute, shares the organization’s history from how it began to how it has evolved to the mission that continues to guide its work today. We also introduce you to Dr. Mandarano from Northwell Health, which is part of two new and needed healthcare facilities opening in Pike County this year.



Then, take a swing at the brand new, high-tech golf simulator at Shawnee Inn & Golf Resort, allowing golfers to get in the game no matter what the weather brings. Winter doesn't slow things down at Skirmish Paintball. Step onto the field for fast-paced fun that turns up the intensity, even in the cold.



We close this episode out with Chris Barrett who introduces us to Nathan Reigner from the PA Office of Outdoor Recreation. Nathan shares his perspective on tourism and outdoor recreation in Pennsylvania.
