Default Hatfield McCoy Trails last week

Well the Ribble Holler Bunch made another trip from Missouri to West Virginia last week. After an 11 hour drive we just settled in Saturday, and made our first rides on Sunday. With having my Son and Daughter-In-Law's 19 month old little girl with us Mom, and Grandma shared baby watch times. Even PawPaw did a little baby sitting duty. The trails were great. Because of recent rains, and additional rains on a couple evenings the dust was at a minimum. But the mud wasn't! We rode Rockhouse mostly, but did make trips to Bufalo Mountain, and Pinnacle Creek. After being away from riding for a couple years with a bad hip it took me a little while to get back in the swing. By our last day I was riding some of the lower numbered black trails on Rockhouse though.
We stayed at Browning Fork Trailhouse, and I can't say enough about how great this place, and the people who run it are. One of their advertisements says "Where you're treated as a guest, but feel like family" That description is so absolutely spot on!!!
After a week of riding I thought we were all ATV'd out, but after a couple days home we all wish we were still there.
Thanks to the folks at Browning Fork Trailhouse for another great family adventure.
Bob, Nick, Mandy, Kaylee, George, and Glenda...The Ribble Holler Bunch!

I guess that's better than, "Where you're treated like family, but feel like a guest."

Any pictures coming??? It's on my bucket list to go down there sometime.

Good point

We have been wanting to make a trek down there for a couple years as well. Unfortunately with my wifes job "change" last year and the way things are looking, IDk if this is the year for it.
