Join us for a long weekend camping, hiking and tubing in wild and wonderful West Virginia!  

 We will meet up Thursday evening to set up our campsite at the campground.  After a leisurely breakfast on Friday, we will visit Blackwater Falls State Park, located in the Allegheny Mountains of Tucker County, and named for the amber waters of the falls, a 57-foot cascade tinted by the tannic acid of fallen hemlock and red spruce needles. The falls, along with some of the park's other features like Elakala Falls, Lindy Point and Pendeleton Point Overlook, are some of the state's most photographed spots.  We'll explore the town of Thomas and stop by the Purple Fiddle, an iconic music venue, for lunch.  On Saturday, we will have a relaxing morning tubing on the flatwaters of the Cheat River.  Campsite cooking around a campfire will complete the day.  On Sunday, we pack up and head home.  

WWO has a limited amount of camping equipment to lend as a member benefit. Let the trip leader know if you need to borrow any equipment. 

Trip details with suggested equipment list and driving directions to the campground will be provided by email the week before the trip.  Trip fee does not include tubing or food.  

This trip is Thursday evening to Sunday morning, although you can join any time.  We'll do our best to coordinate ride sharing! 

There is limited space, so please register early!
