West Virginia is a great place for a vacation. The county has the highest average elevation of any county east of the Mississippi River. More than 8 rivers begin in Pocahontas County. Some of the rain that falls in Pocahontas County runs eventually ends up in the Gulf of Mexico, and the Atlantic Ocean. In addition to having the best skiing in the east - that's my story and I'm sticking to it - the region has amazing scenery, fresh air, low humidity, cooler temperatures, great fishing, golf, mountain biking, hiking, rock climbing, rafting (serious rafting on the New and Gauley Rivers), caving, kayaking, camping, people-watching, and all the other things that people love to do to relax and recreate. You might have to ride a few miles to find your favorite adventures, but Snowshoe is a perfect base for exploring these opportunities during every season of the year. For the photographer, there is endless opportunity, from scenery, to wildlife, flora and fauna. For the motorcyclist, some of the best durn bikin' roads in the world. West Virginia people are known for friendliness and a welcoming spirit. Mention how much you are enjoying this place we call home, and you're no longer a stranger.
