WV - Pipestem Falls and White Oak Fall

On Saturday, August 9, Pepper and I drove to Pipestem State Park. We first drove to the falls overlook, again just a trickle of water. We then drove to the nature center to hike the County Road Trail in search of Indian Falls. After checking out the nature center and old log cabins from around 1900 we set off for the trail. There was also a horse trail at the trailhead and along with that horse manure and flys! Pepper is scared of flies and was very resistant to go on the trail. I put her in her backpack and carried her for the entire hike - 5 miles! Indian Falls was about a mile into the hike and as I suspected another bust with just a trickle. I could hear the water but could not see it. There was another trail that switched back down to the bottom, I took that hoping to get a view of the water flowing but still no luck. From there I hiked to the end of the trail then back to the nature center. Sunday morning we did a quick hike back to Brush Creek and White Oak Falls before driving to The Greenbriar Resort to pick up Kevin.Leggi altro
