No. 246
DAUPHIN COUNTY
State Game Land 246 is located in Londonderry Township, Dauphin County, approximately 12 miles southeast of the capitol building in the state's capital
of Harrisburg. The deeded acreage for this game land is 423.7 acres and is in Land Management Group 1 of the Southeast Region. The game land is
contained within Wildlife Management Unit 5B.
There are 2 maintained parking areas on SGL 246 and these are readily accessible from State Route 341(Roundtop Road) and SR 2002(Schoolhouse
Road). The game land has a single road in the shape of a horseshoe that provides access by foot only.
Topography varies from the peak and slopes of Roundtop to some lowlands surrounding it. The highest elevation of 925 feet is found on Roundtop. The
lowest elevation of 480 feet is along the southern boundary. SGL 246 is 98% forested with ash, poplar and mixed oaks dominating the forest. The
understory is a mixed brew of non-native invasive species.
Deer is the primary hunted game animal on this game land. The hunting of turkeys, squirrels and rabbits and some trapping takes place also. Hiking and
bird-watching are popular non-consumptive uses of the game land and this parcel of forest in surrounding farmland is a popular stop over for migrating
neo-tropical birds.
