BLACKWATER CANYON

West Virginia’s scenic Crown Jewel is threatened by logging and development. It is home to four endangered species, an historic railroad grade with rare cut-stone archways and coke ovens. It is a mecca for recreation from kayaking and mountain biking to bird watching and botanizing. Help us protect this wild river gorge and bring it into protected public ownership
