The next time you head to the trails down Route 119, be sure to stop by the brand new Hatfield-McCoy Visitors Center. I'll leave it to a better wordsmith than myself to give you the rundown on the center, so read below for a full report from Walt Williams of the WV State Journal: "The inside is decorated with several game trophies, including two black bears that look down on visitors from alcoves above each of the hallways. A central fireplace sporting a stone in the shape of West Virginia above the mantel dominates the main room.
The center itself is at the trailhead of the Little Coal River Trail system, which runs through some 65 miles of rugged countryside.
The center will serve as a ranger's office and public information office for trail permits and brochures. It also will serve as a headquarters for the systems souvenir sales. The center will be open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. seven days a week, staffed by one full-time director and by part-time employees."
