Smoke Hole Caverns and Lost River Campground Review | Wild and Wonderful West Virginia!

In this Episode: We’re starting off 2024, and it’s kinda like a house on fire, or a forest fire, but certainly not a calming campfire… While on our way to Lost River Campground, we notice many forest fires bouncing through the National Forests in Virginia. As we made our way down I81 we kept seeing them everywhere. We had no idea what we were heading into. When we reached our campground, there was talk of an evacuation. We quickly realized we were in no immediate danger, but we were troubled nonetheless. This episode will include a brief tour of the campground and its amenities. It’s actually a really nice and affordable campground, one we will definitely revisit in the future. Our Itinerary was to include several hikes at Lost River State Park, however, over 1,000 acres of this park was claimed by the forest fires. Instead, we chose to head over to Smoke Hole Caverns. This is a rather touristy attraction, but quite fun nonetheless. The cave was used by Native Americans for smoking meats, thus the name, Smoke Hole. I was later used to make moonshine during prohibition. The history of the cave is fascinating, yet the geology of the area trumps everything. Here, Pangea collided, and flipped the cave 90 degrees; this allows visitors to walk on the walls! Next Week: North Fork Mountain Trail Our journey continues every Thursday at 5:00!
