Highpoint #17 WV Spruce Knob 4,863 ft. Rank #24

Now to the mountain state. After lunch and watching the end of the 3AAA West Virginia High School championship game with 3 local hunters we started toward Spruce Knob. I now know why they call West Virginia the mountain state! Driving through that area makes you feel small. At 4:30 pm we completed the Trifecta, and there were great view from the observation tower, but after that we started our decent with NO GAS. So instead of a celebration ensuing we were driving through the middle of nowhere on fumes. I want to take this opportunity to thank the great gas company Chevron! Thank you Chevron for indeed putting a gas station IN the middle of nowhere. Up next NC, KY and VA in two weeks!
