Hatfield-McCoy Trail的点评
点评：Trip to HMT May 19 to 22, 2024 Arriving Sunday - Departing Thursday.
Thought I would post some info about our first trip to HMT. Southern trails. We elected to stay in the middle of the system. Just us and a friend.
About getting there. We came in using I 77. If you are going to stay in the middle of the system and are going to areas like Wild Willy's or Ashland Resort or other places in the middle. Follow Wild Willy's directions not your GPS ! You will suffer much less! I 77 to Bluefield and then up to Northfork on US 52 then State Rt 17. Best way to do it, hands down.
You will be using Rt. 17 plenty to get between trailheads, no trailering, all riding.
We stayed at Wild Willy's. Wild Willy's worked out great. Trail permits sold here. Zollie the dude runnning the place was always around. Any issues any problems he was there. Very clean place. Nice little shop. They have a repair shop and it's really stocked! Handy. Got a neat lttle creek running along the resort. One trival thing, they have dehumifiers in the cottages and dang those things are handy with all the spring rains this time of the year!
Just east on Rt 17 is Ashland Resort. Maybe a 3 or 4 min SXS drive. They have a large store with just about everything you need. They also have gas. They have a car wash, we used it every day lol, since the dirt and clay really builds up thick for us. They have already built a large brand new bar and grill right next to the store. Is supposed to be open soon?
Now about our riding. First day we zoomed down to Pocahontas. Second day we zoomed up to Pinnacle. Third day we made a mad dash to Warrior! I am no trail judge expert, lol but here's how I see things.
Pochontas was closest so we managed to cover more trails there. Rt 17 to 13 to the trailhead. Made it to Bramwell at the southern bottom side of the trail system, neat little town. The green trails are basically easy, found the blue trails to be basically a green but narrower? Nothing to give you white knuckles. We took on one black trail #70. Going up one side was half way large loose rock, but doable, up toward the top it became steps and boulders. Kind of got stuck there, lucky a buddy was at the top, he guided us up. After that we decided we would rather stick to blue and green since there are plenty of them and they are more to our taste ! To all your own. 6.5 hours of riding and 60 miles for that day.
Since the Pinnacle trailhead entry is near Northfork we got gas at Luckys on US52. Not too far at all maybe 5 to 7 min. Ice too. The route to Pinnacle trails 27, 30 and 20 was neat, bunch of creeks, they have an old mine fan building on the route. And one wider creek with a nice rest area and even had trash cans. Thing about going up to Pinnacle trail 20 is it was a much bumpier ride, different kind of rock on the trail, makes your teeth chatter and your lower back ache if you push it lol. From the trail head to basically the south side of Pinnacle trail system it was approx 1 hour and 15 min with stops. We got near Pineville and made our way back eastward, covered bunch of greens and blues actually found the blues beat ya up less : ) . We used different trails to go back to Willy's, 36, 28 and the connecting roads to Indian. We were out of time and bypassed Indian trails using the side roads I think it was Rt 16 that takes you back to Rt 17. 8 hrs of riding and approx 75 miles that day.
Last day was to get to Warrior and eat a late lunch in Welch. Basically same thing, gas up at Luckys. Hit the Pinnacle trailhead 27. Then down the loonnggg connector trail 29. Liked this trail. Couple of very scenic stops on this route. Easy green, but due to rains, one 300 yard section was a swamp. Big ass ruts wow. Got through it fine but wasn't expecting it. Interesting thing on our way back on the same route the HMT Mainteance crew was on site with a backhole, doing work on that very section and they were doing good. I like seeing my $50 bucks hard at work ! Got to Welch. From the trailhead at Northfork to Welch approx 1 hr of 45 min. With several stops. Warrior was nice. We spent maybe 2 hrs there, couldn't cover much. But that's ok. Headed back to Welch, lunch at Subway. All good then made the trek home. 7hrs 18 min of driving. 82 miles. 30 min of that helping my buddy who handled the last U turn to the Welch highway too fast and ended up on his side, my winch got a work out. No injuries to him but his SXS lost a windshield and mirror, a lesson on doing fast u turns and donuts LOL
Nothing to report on Indian system. Funny that its at our door steps and we didn't touch it. Next time for sure!
Not a whole lot of people there on the trails. So many trails. We had perfect weather. No rain, high 80' low 60's
Sorry not much to report on dining other than lunch in Welch. We ate at our cabin every evening. So can't comment on where to eat in the area. If the bar and grill gets opened at Ashland it will be an excellent option. Wanted to do the Outlaw Bar and Grill, but they were open Thursday to Sunday and I think several other places had the same schedule or closed at 5: pm during our stay.
Last thing, we departed early, long 11 hr trip home. We used the same route back to I 77. FYI the Hardees in Bluefield is an excellent coffee filler upper for your departure, since you will need it! On your route out and good parking.
We will for sure be back, but probably check out the northern HMT trails, Rockhouse, Devils, etc.
Hope this helps some of you making a plan.

翻译：2024 年 5 月 19 日至 22 日前往 HMT 周日抵达 - 周四出发。
我想发布一些关于我们第一次前往 HMT 的信息。南部小径。我们选择留在系统的中间。只有我们和一个朋友。
关于到达那里。我们是通过 I 77 进来的。如果您要留在系统的中间并要去 Wild Willy's 或 Ashland Resort 或中间的其他地方。按照 Wild Willy 的指示而不是您的 GPS ！你会少受点苦！I 77 到 Bluefield，然后到 US 52 上的 Northfork，然后是 State Rt 17。毫无疑问，这是最好的方法。
您将使用 Rt. 17 大量往返于步道起点之间，没有拖车，全程骑行。
我们住在 Wild Willy's。Wild Willy's 很棒。这里出售步道许可证。经营这个地方的伙计 Zollie 总是在附近。任何问题他都在那里。非常干净的地方。很不错的小店。他们有一个修理店，里面的存货非常多！很方便。度假村旁边有一条小溪。还有一件小事，他们在小屋里有除湿机，这些东西在每年这个时候春雨不断的情况下很方便！
沿着 17 号公路往东走就是 Ashland Resort。开车到 SXS 大概需要 3 到 4 分钟。他们有一个大型商店，里面有你需要的一切。他们也有汽油。他们有洗车服务，我们每天都用，哈哈，因为泥土和粘土对我们来说真的很厚。他们已经在商店旁边建了一个全新的大型酒吧和烧烤店。应该很快就要开业了？
现在说说我们的骑行。第一天我们飞奔到 Pocahontas。第二天我们飞奔到 Pinnacle。第三天我们疯狂地冲向 Warrior！我不是赛道评判专家，哈哈，但我是这样看的。
Pochontas 最近，所以我们设法在那里覆盖了更多的赛道。 17 号公路到 13 号公路，到达步道起点。到达步道系统南端的 Bramwell，一个整洁的小镇。绿色步道基本上很容易，发现蓝色步道基本上是绿色但更窄？没什么好紧张的。我们走的是黑色步道 #70。上行的一侧是半路的大块松散岩石，但可以走，上到顶部就变成了台阶和巨石。有点被困在那里，幸运的是一个朋友在顶部，他带我们上去。之后我们决定还是走蓝色和绿色的步道，因为它们很多，而且更合我们的口味！随你便吧。那天骑行了 6.5 小时，60 英里。
由于 Pinnacle 步道起点入口靠近 Northfork，我们在 US52 上的 Luckys 加油。不是很远，大概 5 到 7 分钟。还有冰。通往 Pinnacle 27、30 和 20 号小径的路线很整洁，有许多小溪，路边有一座古老的矿扇建筑。还有一条更宽的小溪，有一个不错的休息区，甚至还有垃圾桶。通往 Pinnacle 20 号小径的问题是，骑行更加颠簸，路上有不同种类的岩石，如果推的话，会让你的牙齿打颤，腰也会酸痛，哈哈。从小径起点到 Pinnacle 小径系统南侧，中途停留大约需要 1 小时 15 分钟。我们到了 Pineville 附近，然后向东返回，走过了许多绿色和蓝色区域，实际上发现蓝色区域对你来说没那么难受 : )。我们走了不同的小径回到 Willy's、36、28 和连接印第安的道路。我们没时间了，就绕开了印第安小径，走岔路，我想是 16 号公路，然后回到 17 号公路。那天骑了 8 小时，大约 75 英里。
最后一天是去 Warrior，在 Welch 吃午饭。基本上还是一样，在 Luckys 加油。到达 Pinnacle 步道起点 27。然后沿着 29 号连接小径走下去。喜欢这条小径。这条路线上有几个风景优美的站点。很容易通过，但由于下雨，一个 300 码的路段变成了沼泽。大车辙哇。顺利通过了，但没有想到。有趣的是，在我们沿同一路线返回的路上，HMT 维护人员在现场挖了一个坑，正在那一段工作，他们做得很好。我喜欢看到我的 50 美元努力工作！到了 Welch。从 Northfork 的步道起点到 Welch 大约需要 1 小时 45 分钟。中途停了好几次。Warrior 很不错。我们在那里待了大概 2 个小时，没能走太多路。不过没关系。我们回到了 Welch，在 Subway 吃了午饭。一切顺利，然后踏上回家的路程。开车 7 小时 18 分钟。82 英里。其中 30 分钟我帮助了我的朋友，他最后一次掉头到 Welch 高速公路时速度太快，最后侧翻了，我的绞盘坏了。他没有受伤，但他的 SXS 丢了挡风玻璃和后视镜，这是快速掉头和转弯的教训 LOL
印度系统没什么可报告的。有趣的是它就在我们家门口，我们没碰它。下次一定！
步道上没有很多人。步道太多了。我们的天气很好。无雨，最高气温 80'，最低气温 60'
抱歉，除了在韦尔奇吃午餐外，没有太多关于就餐的信息。我们每天晚上都在小屋里吃饭。所以无法评论该地区的就餐地点。如果阿什兰的酒吧和烧烤店开业，那将是一个绝佳的选择。本来想去 Outlaw Bar and Grill，但他们周四到周日营业，我想在我们逗留期间，其他几个地方也有同样的时间表或下午 5 点关门。
最后一件事，我们很早就出发了，回家的路程长达 11 小时。我们走的是同一条路回到 I 77。仅供参考，布鲁菲尔德的 Hardees 是您离开时的绝佳咖啡补充品，因为您会需要它！在您离开的路上，停车方便。
我们肯定会回来的，但可能会去看看北部的 HMT 小径、Rockhouse、Devils 等。
希望这能帮助你们中的一些人制定计划。
