Overview

Deep in the heart of "Wild West Virginia" lies the Monongahela National Forest, with hundreds of miles of roads and trails to explore. Richford Road, without a doubt, has the longest and deepest river crossing! Fording the poorly named Dry Fork of the Cheat River is an adventure. This is a great area for dispersed camping as well as fishing for native and stocked trout.
