    Mostly trout. They were plants though. I believe, before my time, there were natives but thats history.

    Hey wheaton Thats a great route. Can't add much other than when you get up toward snowshoe there are a couple options. One is Cass railroad. You can ride an old steam train to the top of cheat mountain. The other is the national observatory in greenbank. Both good side trips if staying...

    Looking from church across the road. I always wonder about the lives of people who would have built this farm and lived in remote places like this. Probably not the same as portrayed on TV.. :) Must have been a hard but peaceful life. Not many distractions...other than work.

    Top of the hill is pretty flat. Elevation around 3000 feet though. They do plow the road but its the last on their route. If you live up here..plan on being snowed in for a while. Stopped at this church for a cigarette. I doubt God will mind.

    This is half way up the hill. Not really a mountain as the name suggests. If you get more up toward Snowshoe and Seneca Rocks they're pretty close to what i would call mountains. We used to live in Washington State..there were mountains there. Thats kind of what I compare mountains to...

    Always liked this farm. The "big" house I passed a ways back and didn't get a pic. The barns and field have more beauty anyway.

    Anyhow..Guess I'll head over Muddy Creek mountain. Haven't been there in a while. There is about 2-3 miles of gravel along the way but its mostly packed. Shouldn't be a problem. First stop is the covered bridge.
