We left the beautiful Stonewall Jackson State Park today and got back onto WV roads heading southwest. It was quite mountainous and the road bucked and dove, twisted and turned but still we continued. There does not seem to be any level or straight sections of road in this part of West Virginia. After leaving the interstate, the roads got even screwier.
A couple hours, dozens of ascents and descents and about a million turns later, we pulled off the road right after crossing the New River Gorge Bridge near Fayetteville. Once a year, they close the bridge and turn it over to BASE jumpers for some hopefully proper landings after some suicidal jumps off this lofty structure.
We pulled into an RV park called Rifrafters which has very few spaces, lots of mud and difficult trailer access but, after considerable jockeying around, we got our giant trailer into one of their substandardly sized RV spots. There were a couple thunderstorms that blasted through here today and stepping off the gravel of the RV space onto the adjacent saturated soil can be quite treacherous. I hope when the time comes in a few days that we can get out of here without doing a bog run.
