I thought WVU, Appalachian State and Mount St. Mary's were the only Mountaineers as college sports nicknames.


Wrong!


Turns out there are NINE!


Maybe Huggins can arrange a Mountaineers Invitational?

DANG IT, YOU'RE MAKING ME JEALOUS! NOTHING LIKE MOUNTAINS AND RIVERS TO STIR YOUR HEART, HUH?

Right there between Grand Junction and Gunnison is nice.
There are a couple of National Parks right there.
Including the Black Canyon of the Gunnison.

My place in up off of I-70 right before you get to the really beautiful parts of the Western Slope before the Eisenhower Tunnel.
I actually go up there every June to my place. The rest of the time I rent it out.

IMO the summer up there is better than the winter. But you find people who like the winter for the snow.

STOP IT! YOU'RE MAKING ME CRY FOR MY HOME STATE OF WEST VIRGINIA. FLAT BUCKEYE LAND JUST DOESN'T HAVE THE SAME CHARM.
