Camping at Table Rock / Canaan Heights – November 10, 2021

Packing up and leaving early after a night at Canaan Heights - Table Rock in West Virginia when I was having problems with a bad wheel bearing in my truck. I wish I could have spent more time in West Virginia -- I'm almost tempted to go back down there this autumn again. November camping was cold, but it might be worth it, just to set up camp at Canaan Heights and spend some time there again.
