need directions to the wagon wheel area
Are you talking about the Wagon Wheel store on Pinnacle Creek, WV?? Hatfield McCoy trail??

If so, the only way I can give you directions is to send you to the HM website. Hatfield McCoy website The newest trail is the one listed as Pinnacle Creek. There are directions on the site. It's my understanding that the trail ends near the wagon wheel. Most anyone you meet on the trail should be able to give you directions.

We normally go in from the backway near Coaldale WV. Our ride ends up at there.

When you coming down??

Trailblazer...... send me an e-mail. I'll try to get some info for you and get back to you in a day or so. I know of some campgrounds on top of the mountain above the stairsteps the way we go in. Best I know they have electricity, etc.......

Also which way will you be coming?? 81 to Wytheville, then up 77?

Hope I can help.

Steve, we're gonna try and ride up there Monday. If the rain ever lets up. We've had terrible rains the past few weeks down here, so the holes and mudpits are pretty deep.

I'll get the name of that campground, and e-mail the directions and stuff to you. Lots of trails on top of that mountain, so it''s a good place to ride.

You might want to make sure to pack everything you may need, 'cause you'll be quite a ways from any bigger stores. It's really out in the boonies. Also if you have, and are experienced with, a GPS, it might be helpful to bring it too.

I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Tim

Email pinnaclecreekatvcampground@yahoo.com Thats the lady the owns the campground. She should be able to give you directions.

I was there last week. Email the Linda and tell her to get Capt. Jack to cut you some wood. He s a one armed man who watches over the campground. Brought us a bunch of wood for like $10. The food at the wagon wheel store was pretty good too. Gas was $2.50 a gal.
