    • ]]>     This past weekend Aleya, her dog, and I went to Northern West Virginia to do some backpacking. After a night of fairly intense rain we scaled this back to day hikes, basing our camp at Seneca Rocks . On Saturday we hiked to the North Summit of Seneca rocks and enjoyed the view of the valley. Later that afternoon we drove up to the top of Spruce Knob and hiked around the top.

    On Sunday morning we headed to the area of our original objective, the Otter Creek Wilderness. We did about 4 miles on the Otter Creek Trail. The creek was fairly full, owing to the recent rain. It was nice hike, not too warm which was nice. Follow the link below to pictures from both days…
