Who's interested in a WV wilderness trip in June?

“Why outside? Let's go for inside. lol.”

“Yea ..How about a Ham with Glazed Honey all over it...............

Just a reminder.........The Trail head is on the Left side of Scenic Route 150 and Not the Road that goes to the Right. Road on the right has a Big Brear Sanctuary sign located on the right side of 150. Actyal Trail head is Big beechy Trail head. The Nature center is open all day friday located at the intersection of rt 39 and 150, they have maps there also...........Yea haaaaaaaaa”

“Spread molasses on fridge's tent before going to sleep...and maybe add a little whiskey to them to make things really interesting for the bear...

Anyway, I'm heading out Friday morning sometime and should be getting there in the afternoon sometime. This trailhead appears to be right on a state highway; should be fairly easy to find.”

“No, no, its LEFT!!”

“If headed from RT 39 to 150 it will be on the LEFT if headed from 219 to 150 then it's on the right............”

“Fridge do you have GPS coords for any of this? A couple people have asked.”

“Just to be clear, the trailhead is on the WEST side of highway 150; the bear sanctuary is on the EAST side.

Correct?”

“GPS
“38 17 50 / 80 15 07”

“My last night to work before getting ready and heading out, yeah!!! ChinMusic and I are planning on heading out on thursday and seeing how far we get before we stop for the night. We should be there mid afternoon on Friday.”

“Wrong Phantom..........The bear sanctuary is where we are Backpacking.the sign is just located on that side of the road. The Trail head is located on the west side of Scenic Route 150.”

“hehehehe.....”

“If that's the trail I'm thinking of there is a 90* trail intersection a short distance west from Route 150.

Be careful, about 100 yards south of that intersection I took a massive dump............uh, about five years ago.”

..See Ya Out There..”

“I'm bring myself plus 5 others. This will be a big trip. One of the people coming with me is driving hisself and staying Monday as well.”

“So our first night is only about a 1 1/2 in right? If so, would anyone mind it I were to bring some baby back ribs to cook over the fire that night? Would we have a way to set them up so they could cook? How many are there going to be on Friday night? Any thoughts from those going?”

“Fridge - you have e-mail”

“No ribs for you! I won't have time to get them ready to bring. We are heading out today. Maybe next time.”

“We'll be leaving between 12 and 1. It's a 5 hour drive and since it's only 1/2 mile in, we're going to stop along the way and get some geocaches. See you guys tomorrow!”

“Thanks to everyone for a great trip. I'm home and Chin is on his way. You guys were great!!! Pictures will be posted soon.

“home = bed”

“Got home about 5. It was an excellent morning for a hike.

Fridge thanks for the hospitality...now to find that wayward pole.”

“Nice pictures..............lotta dogs.”

“Rolled in about 930 last night. Unloaded the gear out of my car, took a shower, and passed out.

Enjoyed meeting all the new folks, as well as seeing all the familiar folks again. Cranberry was really nice; think it would make an excellent place for a winter "pulk" sledding trip (perhaps a FYAO: West Virginia Edition?)”

“We stopped and got some Geocache's along the way, got home about 10pm. Haven't downloaded pictures yet.”

“Looking forward to seeing your pictures Dub!”

“Hey where's everyone's pictures???”

“Thanks sticks for sharing. It was nice meeting you.
Dub - where's your pictures???”

“I'm sure we will see each other again.

I didn't take that many pics and most of those sucked. The picture gods were aginsst me.”
