Cheat River Valley, WV - June 6-8, 2008

Destination: Cheat River Valley, known for it's Class 5 whitewater
and great scenary in the mountains.......about four hours from
home. 9% grades coming down the mountains makes for some
interesting driving!

Rowlesburg WV....little town on the Cheat River. We set-up
camp on the riverbank there, until the owner showed-up and
asked us to move on. :(

Cheat River - a more tranquil portion.............

The kayak crew, really nervous that they might find some

real whitewater..............

Railroad trestle destroyed in the flood of 1985.......

Jon & Terry - the Ohio clan..............

Lee & Kathy - Ever see "Deliverence"?............

We had the campground to ourselves..............

Always the morning fog......................

The Barth and its right-seat driver/navigator........

We thought we had located the cheapest gas in the U.S.

in Kingwood, WV......and we were first in line!......

......but nobody showed up to sell us gas........Maybe they

close early on Sundays? :)
