Spruce Knob

We went to Spruce Knob Saturday morning. As you can see by the sign, Spruce Knob is the highest point in West Virginia. It was a long drive. About an hour and a half. When we got there the wind was fierce. I wish we had an anomometer with us to measure the wind speed. And ohh was it cold! I mean it was beyond cold. I think your breath would freeze to your face if you blew against the wind. There were clear skies. It was absolutly beautiful. I love taking these long road trips and getting pictures. We also went to Seneca Rocks Saturday. I will post those pics later on. I really wish some of you were with me to see the beauty of our area. I didn't get very many pictures because the wind was so fierce and the air so cold. I plan to make another trip in the summer when the air is a bit warmer. Though I have a feeling that all the way up there it is going to be cold no matter what time of year it is.



The view is unbelievable. But it is COLD!
I forgot to mention the trees up here are one
sided because the wind is so fierce
More one sided pines.
One picture that I managed to get from the lookout tower.
