As we journeyed up Cheat Mountain on Shay #11 during our expedition on the Cass Scenic Railway to reach Bald Knob, I wondered about the watersheds of West Virginia. It was pointed out to us as we were coming down the mountain, there was a plateau in the far distance that divided the watersheds of the Chesapeake Bay and the Gulf of Mexico.

The purpose of the blog is to keep a record of my experience of the forest and rail in West Virginia. For my whole life I have been surrounded by individuals from my family that have been involved in dealing with lumber. I am thrilled to be part of this program to learn the history and the economics behind WV gforest. As I am a biology teacher I hope to be able to implement the content into my biology class.
