My grandpa and his brother owned the property in the Bluestone river valley on river left from around Pipestem down to what is now Bluestone lake and all the Little Bluestone creek area that was later donated to the national park service.
I spent so much of my younger years on those hills that one leg is still shorter than the other.
Want To Buy;

.284 Hornady AMax 162gr.
.224 Hornady AMax 75gr.

A couple Glock 42 380ACP mags

Les...are you talking about Streeter near Cool Ridge, WV? Yes Sir. That is my old stomping grounds. Born and raised on Ellison Ridge on the Jumping Branch side. That's pretty cool. My property is half way down Dunn's Road from Ellison Ridge road. Bought if from the Clarks in '72. Going down the mountain would it be on your left, nice little field with a gate blocking the entrance? I ran out of gas one night in the truck after a night of backroad drinking right about where your property is and had to walk to Jumping Branch. I was dead sober by the end.

Les, it's a little further down from that gate, around a curve and there are two gates. One goes toward the right up a little dirt road and the other elbows down left and that one goes to ours. It was some of the Meador's old "home place". I have nearly had heart attacks dragging deer out of the "holler" down the creek bed from the old house we have which is about to fall in. I have killed many copperheads around that old house. It's so secluded that a person could go without clothes and never be seen by anybody. I killed a little buck in the yard a few years ago with a Model 71 .348 so that one I didn't have to spend five hours on dragging uphill. You Sir had a long, long walk to Jumping Branch! It's great to realize what a small world it is. All the best...Bill.
