Sophia Tunnels | Hatfield McCoy Trails | Outlaws

[@brianmabe30]

What area is this close to?

[@unmarkedtrailriders]

Well, we left ashland Resort, went through beer can alley/drinking tree , did some more outlaws, and ended up on part of Pinnacle Trail System, then some more outlaw trails. My boyfriend says once we got to the Tams Mine that was Burning Rock Trails... then we just continued until we got to the tunnels. The town right there at the end of the tunnel is Sophia. Went for gas there and then came back the same way we went. We use Lifetime Trail Maps, so we used that to preplan our route for the ride. Hope that helps out some haha if not, let me know your next question. Maybe i can help with that.

I think that's Barkers Creek Trail with the swimming hole. It's a great run we do it several time a year.

How do you get to Sophia tunnel from Bluefield

[@unmarkedtrailriders]

We left from ashland and went through beer can alley. I know we were in Pinnacle for a little but then took a bunch of outlaw trails to get out there. We use life time trail maps and made a route based off them.

This seems disrespectful and destructive to the land and ecosystem. Is it not?

[@unmarkedtrailriders]

Im am not sure. We were told by others its a place to check out, and locals use it too .

[@cwsenderson]

No, as long as nobody is tearing it up, they won’t do anything to it, if the people start to tear it up though, that’s when they will shut it down

[@tedk2166]

Plant a tree and get over yourself!😢

[@Indianahillclimber]

Decide for yourself what is destructive and act accordingly. As for these guys I didn't see any destructive behavior. Some people litter and graffiti rocks I have no problem calling that out.
