Check out our West Virginia "Bloody Mingo Tug Fork River Water Trail". The trail runs 60 miles, the entire length of Mingo county, WV and its border with Pike and Martin Counties in Kentucky. Our river is an excellent smallmouth bass fishery and has plenty of scenery and history as well.

In 2022 we formed a partnership with WV DEP REAP, City of Williamson, Mingo County Solid Waste Authority, and Veolia Water to provide an alternative for disposal of waste tires. West Virginia residents can bring up to 10 old tires from their home to be disposed of properly by REAP free of charge.

The program has sparked residents to do neighborhood and stream cleanups. We gladly accept those "formerly wilded" waste tires too.

As of June 1, 2024, now in our third year, 3,216 tires have been dropped off. We know that these will not end up dumped over a hillside or in our river.
