During a winter snow storm we hiked down into the New River Gorge. All along the mountains sides just above the New River are creeks and runs that pour down these mountain sides. One of these creeks is Keenys Creek. This is one of the most scenic and unknown areas of the New River, and the waterfalls along this creek are astounding. This particular waterfall cannot even be seen from the ridge top above but you must climb down into the ravine. This is one of our favorites.

Beautiful Waterfall deep in a ravine in West Virginia during a Winter Snow storm. We descended about 100 feet down to the rushing waters of Keeny’s creek. This is just above the New River Gorge. I am standing on a big snow covered rock trying to keep my balance while the snow is pouring down and the cold winter wind is blowing. My companion is over on the hillside, he is much more help than he realizes, just being here as my buddy.

Hiking out a winter mountain trail after a heavy wet winter snow storm. This is a trail near the highland scenic highway in West Virginia. Rusty and I hiked about two miles out here, it was really beautiful and the snow was about 30 inches or deeper in many places. The sun shining on these trees gave a nice light for a scenic nature picture during our hike.

Scenic winter waterfall with snow covered rocks. Deep in the New River Gorge during a winter snow storm. We climbed down into this ravine to get to this waterfall. Although you can see the creek from the road you cannot see this waterfall. the only way you can see this is to actually climb down here.
