Engine Run ...
Quite the name for a stream, probably gets it's name from the gurgling roar of the stream off of Canaan Mountain and the way Great Laurel dim down the sound to make it sound a bit like an engine.

Spanning the Appalachian Mountains of West Virginia, Monongahela National Forest sprawls across 900,000 acres of diverse landscapes. Its lush forests, rolling hills, and rugged mountains create a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. With abundant trails, including those in the designated Cranberry Wilderness, hiking, camping, fishing, and wildlife watching are popular pursuits. The forest offers primitive and roadside camping, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in nature. While embracing its wilderness charm, it's important to note that limited cell service adds to the authentic back-to-nature experience.
