What can I say... Simply amazing. Tons of waterfalls along the trail. Huge mountains covered with snow topped trees that blow down on you in the wind. An old plane crash which unfortunately took the lives of 2 people in the Seventies, and is still there. (Consult the internet if you want to find it.) Views for days, and trash everywhere at campsites! Hike your trash out you awful gutter snipes! This is a beautiful place but when I almost kneel in glass making a fire at a really nice site, I want to find people and smack them. Keep the woods clean everyone. All of the sites have amazing views and scenery but my last night I found a frozen towel, beer cans, glass, old paracord and plastic bags. Please watch out when camping for glass and try to hike garbage out when you can.

I went out to Gandy Creek for stream monitoring training by Save our Streams. Great instructor and outstanding group of people attended.

I absolutely love it here. It is isolated and a wonderful place to take your family. We go there every year. I will probably camp here for the rest of my life. Trails and the views are what make the trip. I love love love it.!!!

It's a beautiful, beautiful place. It's always one of our must visit places when we come to West Virginia every fall.
