around the tunnels by exiting at Ft Littleton (old exit 13 or 14), then getting back on the pike farther down. I pulled out one my PA state maps to look for what alternate roads there might be once we exited. I think there were about two roads besides the tpk. We went up and down 2 lane roads over the mountains until we were able to re-enter the tpk. There was just nothing around! I was glad it was during the day and not at night.
