![]()
The Bark Peelers' Festival is the Pennsylvania Lumber Museum's biggest event of the year, recreating a nineteenth century logging camp with a working sawmill and a birch still. Competitors vie for the title of Grand Champion Barkpeeler in log rolling, birling, the greased pole, and crosscut saw contests over the Fourth of July weekend. The festival has run for roughly five decades along this stretch of Route 6 in the Pennsylvania Wilds.
