August Insta-greats

As summer comes to a close, we’re reminiscing about all our wild, wonderful adventures. From the The State Fair of West Virginia to WV Craft Beer Week, it’s been a month full of memories. Here are some of our late summer #GoToWV favorites:

1. State Fair of West Virginia, Fairlea

6. Tree line at Big Bear Lake Campground

This mornings 5am run out at the Ragnar Trail Appalachians West Virginia Relay Race on the Big Pine Trail. My absolute favorite loop out of the three. It was completely pitched black out when I started my run and watching the sunrise through the trees reassured my love for being a morning person. Another magical run in the books. Thank you kindly Mother nature 😊 #ragnar #ragnarrelay #innerwild #chasethesun#ragnartrailwv#optoutside#westvirginia #liveauthentic#nature#naturelovers#mothernature#instanature#nature_perfection#nature_shooters#naturephotography#natureshots#mytravelgram#adventure#travelbug#rei1440project#greatoutdoors#thegreatoutdoors#getoutside#everytrailconnects#gotowv#traillife#trailrunning#trailrun#seenonmyrun#findyourpark

12. Stopping for a quick rest on Seneca Rocks

Dozing in the sun on my gear bed at the south peak summit of Seneca Rocks while @al_leh_ka_sa tops out on her climb! It had been pouring buckets of rain on us about 30 minutes prior to this photo. Andy and Alex were able to wait it out on the wall before starting Gunsight Direct, but Joe and I were on opposite ends of a pitch on Green Wall, so we pushed on through. Wet quartize is a little like climbing on ice. No falls though!! 😉 . . . . #tradisrad #senecarocks #rockclimbing #gotowv #justgoclimb #westvirginia #climbwv #summitphoto #napwithaview #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #girlswhoclimb #gearbed
