Here are some pics for my trip on Saturday. It was snowing its ass off all day. The plan was to stay in Seneca Rocks WV in a rental cabin, but after seeing the cabin I decided I would rather drive home in a raging snow storm. My GF and I left Richmond at 7am on saturday and got back around 11PM. It was a LONG day.

Nice. What trails did you do?
I seriously considered going down there today, but I decided that my rig's front end is too beat to take it wheeling anytime soon.

I got on 72 at gospel hill. I started toward Gauley ridge at the intersection but decided since I did'nt know the trails that well, it was pretty slick and we were by ourselves to stick to the main trails. We followed 72 all the way through to WV and fueled up in Brandywine then we headed toward Sugar Grove. We took an access road in towards reddish knob. After we got to the top of the mountain I must have taken a wrong turn or something because we were following tracks for hours. Finally after coming down from the ridgeline we ran into a black Liberty with a broken lower ball joint and a broken halfshaft. I asked him if he needed any help but someone had already gone for a tow truck and he said we were near that lake on rt 257?(not sure my maps are in the truck). So anyway we ended up coming out on 33 near the top of Shanendoah mtn? at the WV border off course a little but still had a good time. Once we got to 33 we headed toward Seneca rocks and were going to spend the night untill I saw the cabin I had reserved for the night. I am not a :sissy: when it comes to sleeping arrangements and enjoy spending the nigth in a tent on a Thermarest; however I was not staying in this place and ended up driving home.
