farm is near Petersburg, Grant Co. Also just across the line from Harpers Ferry Wv

It does seem that way. There is a lot of back roads between Kingwood and Terra Alta. I grew up in Kingwood.

Almost neighbors, compared to the rest of the people who have posted on this thread.

We were up in your neck of the woods last month. We met up with a bunch of folks (80 people) at Watoga State Park for a hammock hang. We stopped in Lewisburg to check out the town out. Really nice area but a little expensive for us

I'll be from there next June/July... We're out there every other weekend though... We're in the same area Darren is..

Lewisburg is very expensive, its the nearest large town to me and that still 2 1/2 hours away. The library is nice and our state fair is located there.

I would love to have a hunting camp in WV ,. I love it over there , hunt with friends in Tyler County near Shirley.........

My kid is working as a safety director for the gas industry, based in Western PA. He was a few hours south in WV. the other day, and told me it that he needed 1:45 Hrs to drive from one rig to another, even though they were almost in sight of each other. They were only EIGHT miles apart, as the crow flies, but about 40 miles by road, LOL. Said, his big rig drivers get a little silly when they hit a mile or two of straight road. Sounds like some gorgeous, rough country. He said he talked to folks that live so far back in that they only have atv trails going to their places, and it would be darn near impossible to get a 4x4 truck in without some dozer work. Interesting area indeed.

You should hear some of the stories about the drivers that get sent to WV to work in the oil field. Some of the local drivers have had great fun at the expense of their breathern that didn't grow up driving the hills and valleys.

I had one job that required a two hour drive to get to work by 6:00. No big deal. The only issue was holding up the coal trucks heading to the mine for their first load. I pulled off the road at the first wide spot and let them pass. It took about a month before I got to the point I could keep up with them on the way in.

The well tenders all haul ATVs in their pickups. When a service rig is scheduled, many places require a dozer to get it on the location. You'll never see a dozer in this area without a winch.
