We took the West Virginia Turnpike/64E to Beckley, WV

$8.50 in tolls! 2 tolls in about 25 miles after Charleston and we’ll before Beckley. They only accept cash or EZPass so be ready.

Quality Inn, Beckley, WV

($120/night). It was 30F and our car was covered in frost when we left this morning and now it’s a balmy 68F.

New River Gorge National Recreation Area, WV

($0) We took the Lower Glade Creek Trailhead for a quick (2 mile total out and back, mostly flat but rocky) hike to a little waterfall. A nice trail along a very pretty river.
