Soul Dr. Loc: Beautiful Shenandoah Valley

We have been to Bridge Day on several occasions. Fun watching the base jumpers leaping off the bridge. I got some nice images from those visits.

Thanks Soul Dr.....even though it's my home state, I only had one
occasion to go to Bridge Day....that was 2012 and I made a couple
videos and took photos of the beautiful colors of the gorge....you
can share your photos here if you like...here's my videos...

Country Boy Loc: Beckley, WV

It is near my home and enjoy both the bridge and the white water - from a distance. I am an experienced scuba diver and have a kayak but have never been on the white water. Possibly some day I will venture there! You have a lot of really great clips! Thanks for posting them!

Thanks for the response, Country Boy......if you live close to those,
you are probably just as close to the Greenbrier River....near where
I grew up....take a look at some of these videos and see if they will
entice you to try your Kayak here...I'm sure you could enjoy these,
too!..And, take your fishing rod..it's known for the smallmouth bass..
.My hometown was Ronceverte...

Country Boy Loc: Beckley, WV

Silverhawk, thanks, I am familiar with the area. After 32 years in the DC area I retired back to Beckley area and my property joins Stevens Lake so I do fish there mostly. I do make it to Hinton or Sandstone from time to time but that is about as far as I go. You grew up in a nice area, I have traveled through it many times.

Rafting the Lower New River Gorge (twice) makes my top 5 of most fun experiences!
