New found respect for Wv hunters!

I had to take a trip up I 81 and turned on I 77. Then continued on up I 79.

And I got to say, there is no way with what I seen. That I would try to hunt those mountains. It's either up or down. We have mountains around here that I hunt, but they are nothing like that. I use to pride myself in hunting some pretty rough country. But that trip busted my bubble. BETTER YOU THAN ME!

.....yup.....ya use different muscles than climbin' a ridge..it was payback.....them boys about killed me when I hunted with 'em up there in June!!LOLOLOL

Whats bad, is around clarksburg is probabaly the non-steepest part in the state. From Clarksburg to the north and west is not bad, but east and south it gets steep QUICK! Iv hunted in just about every part here in the state and prefer Clarksburg and north to PA. The further north in the state the better the coon population also. Next time your up this way give me a call and ill put ya in some coon.

Coondawg!!!

Three hillbillies never said I quit!!! I remember a SWAMPMAN making me go to a truck and bring a drink to a hard core hunter to get him to the truck and it was only 400 yards in the hollow!! But we was just getting preped for the water. Will bring a BOAT next time. Had a blast, I think Zeke is still driping water out of his pockets.LOLOLOL!

There are a lot of West Virginia critics out there, they dont know what they are missing! I was born in raised in West Virginia and wouldnt trade the old Mountain State for nothin, its great to be a Mountaineer wherever you may be! Heres a few pics you folks might enjoy.

I'd rather take a walk in johns swamp than a climb over your mountain any day, it's about trecherous up there!!! yaul sure do know how to cook pork chops though!
