Whats great is it is open all year long at least for the first year anyway. It might be really cool to go when the leaves change.

I think I saw on the web site that it's only open for 6-8 weeks. So I think they're going to close it down when the snow flies?

 

This is the exact reply from thier email site.

We will not be closed at all this year. The two counties we are opening in
do not have gun season. Therefore, we will not be closed at all this year.
It may change next year. We will keep everyone posted. Thanks for your
inquiry. April

They replied to my email in about 1hr. Very responsive.

Met up with a bunch of people over the weekend on the trail...was a really great ride. For those who go, might want to take a GPS just in case you get lost. I found a way to the trail from 2 counties away (logging/strip roads EVERYWHERE). Anyone know when they are going to have another pig roast?

 

Morvac, this Hatfield-McCoy trail is what lead me to this website/webpage! It sounds like such a great deal, with over 2000 acres in 5 states eventually. Plus, being from Ohio, a nice place as close as West Virginia is a plus. Can you go into more detail? And realizing that they may not have completed all the trail-markers yet, I thought they were going to put up enough trail-markers and signs to prevent people from losing their way. Would it be easy to get lost there?

I think you are a little confused with your info. The trail will be "at some point in the future" 2000 miles in 3 states WVa. Ky. and Va. Cann't wait for it to get into Va. if that ever does happen. Hope this clears things up.

morvac, if you make any GPS track logs I wouldn't mind taking a look at them. I hope to get down there sooner or later. Hopefully sooner .

 

I've been wanting to head down to the trail but I don't know if my Banshee would be able to make it on the trail. I have a 500 Quadrunner and I know that will make any kind of trail but my fiance likes to ride my Banshee and I don't know whether or not the trail is too rough for a Banshee and wondered if I'd spend most of my time yanking it around with a tow rope. Has anyone rode there yet.

 

Yup, WayneB, you're right about that being only 3 states. Sorry, don't know where I got that 5 state thing into my head. Sorry for (my) confusion...
