Upheaval, The Story of the New River Gorge, Part One

[@justpaula2479]

I’m from Hinton. Haven’t lived there in ages, but still call it “home”. Now that I have retired, the mountains are calling me.

[@runswithcats1]

New River Gorge is one of the most beautiful places on earth!

[@kristibalibrera1378]

I grew up here. I remember my parents taking me to the New River Bridge opening in 1977. Great memories. I'll always have those mountains in me.

[@kristopherrader4959]

I live like 7 miles from the bridge and it’s beautiful

The New River is my favorite place in the world. My parents got married at the Hawks Nest overlook in the mid 80's, and although I don't live in WV anymore, I still love to visit this amazing scenery every chance I get.

We come back every year. It's truly the most beautiful place I've ever been and I've been a lot of places. If you love the outdoors this is literally heaven on earth not even kidding. I've been in Tennessee a s Kentucky the Carolinas and they don't even come close to the gorge.
