Mountaineer Country



Mountaineer Country RegionMountaineers are independent, resourceful and courageous. Mountaineers live life with gusto. This area offers magnificent places to play, learn and live well. From dramatic gorges to ancient Cathedral Forest, the scenery is worthy of wonder. History lives here, too. A frontier-era fort, Civil War cemeteries, museums and a New Deal-era homestead. In Mountaineer Country, history co-exists with energetic university communities, high-tech enterprises and a dynamic cultural scene.
