After stopping for a break and lunch at the Cass Scenic Railroad State Park we were back on the motorcycle. An hour or so later we make it to the southern terminus of the Highland Scenic Highway.
About 43 miles later we came out on the other end of the highway near the Snowshoe Resort Area. I am going to do a separate post on the Highland Scenic Highway.

The view from the top of Snowshoe Mountain.
In the mid-Atlantic area of the US Snowshoe is one of the premier snow skiing areas, and in the summer is renowned for mountain biking. For us, today, it was the end of a day of riding and touring on the motorcycle. We rolled up to the Snowshoe Inn, got a great meal at a nearby restaurant and turned in early.
The folks at Snowshoe Inn were very motorcycle friendly. The allowed us and three others to park our bikes under their covered entrance, somewhat out of the elements.
The next morning, we awoke to dense fog in the valleys that climbed quite away up the mountain sides. We rode at a slower pace due to visibility issues and not wanting to run into any deer, literately.
The ride out of the Snowshoe area could have been great fun. If we could have seen more then a couple dozen yards ahead! Oh well, maybe next time.

There were a LOT of hairpin turns!
By the time the fog had burned off we were back at Yokum’s Store in Seneca Rocks. A sausage, egg and cheese sandwich with a Dr. Pepper hit the spot and now both the motorcycle and its passengers were full and ready to roll.
Roll we did, through the rolling hills of the Greenbrier and Canaan Valleys, up and over a couple ridges we were soon at the last stop of our long weekend, Blackwater Falls State Park outside Davis, WV.
Blackwater Falls gets it name from the color of the water that flows over the waterfall. A very dark brown to black flow, picked up from the rocks over which it flows. 400 steps round trip for some wonderful pictures and a good time with the wife.
The last major road we traveled was Corridor H (US Route 48) or as many call it, the “Road to No Where”. It starts north of Davis, WV and ends near the VA boarder running for about 100 miles. I am going to do a separate post on this road as it is a real beauty.
Our weekend covered 3 days and 610 miles of awesome Twisty, Technical, Tight, Scenic roads.
