Some bad news: Secret Sandwich Society caught on fire on November 5. 😭💔 They are planning to rebuild and if you'd like to help them fund their employee's wages during this time, you can donate here: www.gofundme.com/f/give-to-the-staff-at-sss Watch our other West Virginia vlogs: kzbin.info/aero/PLZKRTK1yCEM5a4PAiayjCpGAkRdeCeb5G Safety is our #1 priority and we want to stress that this adventure, and all future adventures, will be done responsibly and with the health of others in mind. Here are the steps we are taking everyday, including in these videos: 😷Masks and face coverings. We wear these anytime we are near others outside and especially indoors. If we don’t have a mask on in a video, it’s 99% because there was no one around. ⏰ Exploring early. We normally start at sunrise anyway because of less crowds, but especially so with COVID. We have been starting our days before sunlight so we can limit our interactions. 🧼 Washing and sanitizing our hands, especially after touching anything outside of the van. 🚐 Being in the van 95% of the time when we’re not filming. The adventures we share are a small sliver of our lives. We are staying in the van all day everyday when working and the only time we leave is to do laundry, get gas, or go to the store. 6️⃣ Keeping our distance. We are trying to stay at least 6 ft from others, which truthfully isn’t always possible (and then we make sure we cover our face).

I am 90 years old. Born in w.va. Watched the construction of the bridge. My mother and grandmother stood with me on a big rock outcrop one day and watched workmen walk across that span on a steel support that was only about a foot wide. This was common practice during that construction and there were no hand rails. Itwas terrifying to watch. Have no idea what the fatality rate was, but those guys were really good

So glad you were able to experience Fayetteville (even if it was one day, in the rain, and during a pandemic)! There is actually a great spot right across from Long Point trailhead where you guys could have overnighted called Arrowhead Bike Farm. Super cool bike shop/restaurant/beer garden/campground/farm that offers both electric and non-electric camping (bonus they have a station for cleaning bikes that you could have used to shower Kona). Fayetteville is definitely a long weekend destination, there is so much to do there that we go at least once a year and do something new each time we visit. Thank you so much for showing the world how beautiful and special WV is, as a native I have a deep bond with WV, and l love when people share how special she is with the world.

You went to the Gorge!! Soooooo hoping you would. Fantastic viewpoint you found from the trail. It will still give you amazing views in clouds. Will have to go there next time. And you found the overlook we did, and panted up the 178 steps! The mill is so cool - never checked it out before - will have to when we head back. And you went to Pies & Pints!!! The Gorgonzola cheese there is ridiculous. Top 5 pizza spots, and we’ve had pizza all over America. Three spots to also see: The overhead views of the Gorge from Hawk’s Nest, the ground view of the New River from Gauley Bridge and the awesome Cathedral Falls in the same town. You did it right!

I just found your channel and I’m in love. Especially with this one. My father and his siblings were born in a small town just west of the gorge. My father would take me back there to visit my grandparents when I was a child. Last November I took my own family for a week long visit and it just felt like home even though Michigan has always been my home. West Virginia is a beautifully stunning state with long, rich history. So glad you were able to experience it’s beauty for yourselves. And a side note... go back and do the bridge walk sometime. I did it when we were there and it was unbelievable!! You won’t be disappointed.

And just like that I am done with your WV series. Great overall series! Awesome locations, awesome food, awesome adventures. I grew up in Ohio, moved to Pittsburgh for 10 years, and now am in North Carolina for the past few years. I have visited West Virginia many times and have frequented the New River Gorge. You shed a very positive light on the state and showed what this state has to offer. West Virginia is a simply great state for outdoor enthusiasts. If you get back to the New River Gorge area, I recommend a visit to Sandstone Falls and of course whitewater rafting. I have done both the Lower New River (many times) and the Gauley River during fall release from the dam. Not sure what your comfort level would be but both are awesome with great scenery. There are Class V rapids on both rivers but the Gauley is definitely more intense. A really fun ride but everything is just bigger on that river (during the fall).

Just found your channel and have already subscribed. Glad you enjoyed our beautiful state. Most people have the stereotypical view and won't visit. You should tell them how wrong they are!! Tourism is growing here because more people are getting interested in outdoor activities and we have plenty to offer. Come back soon!!! We are some of the most genuine people you will meet.

As someone who lives in the middle of North Carolina, I do a lot of day trips to West Virginia. I can be in the New River Gorge area in four hours. I love the Endless Wall Trail. I always get there so I can hike it in the dark and be at Diamond Point at sunrise, it is beautiful. I love West Virginia, it's not called Almost Heaven for nothing. Great video, I enjoyed every minute of it!

That surely was a picturesque mill! FYI... if you ever come across a PIES and PINTS during your future travels, do try their "Black Bean Cheddar, jalapeño, salsa, cilantro & Creme fraiche". Trust me it is a unique and unexpected yummilicous flavor!!! When we go there, we definitely get one of that to share!!!

I wish you would come back and take the Bridge tour. My son worked for them the summer of his Junior year of HS and just loved it. He Loved the view, apparently you can see for miles around and he was totally in love with the Peregrine falcon pair which had nested in the struts of the Bridge. I was very worried about him being under the Bridge but he was completely enchanted by it.
