Description

Take-out - about 200 yards below Jenkinsburg Bridge on river right, at the confluence of the Cheat and Big Sandy. Steep trail up to parking lot offers a workout for those neglected legs.

Driving south on 26, look for the turn-off to Hudson Road (WV 15), about 6 miles South of I-68.  It's just after a right bend in 26, and immediately in front of a Kwik Stop convenience store. Drive west for about 7 miles to Jenkinsburg.  At a confusing intersection, take the straighter option (Mt. Nebo Rd.).
