There have been movies about the Moth  Man.  But he appeared throughout the area back in the 1960's.  Scaring people along the Ohio River from Taylor County, West Virginia down to Point Pleasant, WV.  The Taylor County Sherriff formed an 80 man horseback posy back in the Mid 60's to hunt him down. 

The area in Taylor County  is the Tygart River that feeds water to the Ohio River.  The Valley Falls SP is there. The Indians called those falls " The Evil Spirt Falls"!   That area and to the south was taboo to the Indians. 

The sitings stopped with the Silver Bridge collapse at Point Pleasant WV that killed about 50 people.  Many people claimed the Moth Man was there at the collapse.  Point Pleasant is home of the Moth Man Museum.  Towns along the area have summer Moth Man Festivals.

BTW...to this day sadly, the Evil Spirt Falls records multiple drownings every year.

What a story, i dont know how i missed that. After your post i read up on it. One interesting point from several accounts was that MEN IN BLACK guys showed up shortly after the sightings, the witnesses said they had translucent pale skin and talked like robots, and shortly after that he was never seen again. Another one i read was that CHIEF CORNSTALK who was a peaceful indian from the late 1700s put a curse on the area because he was killed for not taking sides against the red coats.

      Hi everyone and thanks for reading. 
      My husband and me are getting ready to host the 2nd Quad Runners event at our nudist campground. The first one (last year) went pretty well with about 20 quads attending and have to say, it was a smaller group, but they made up for their size with the large interest in partying and there was plenty of nudity as the Saturday night went on. 
      We have decided to host another one this summer, but we are looking for some fun (but safe) riding events. Our grounds are almost all flat and remember we are a nudist campground so many of us are bare as* naked so "slow ride" events would be the best. 
      Give us your thoughts and ideas and feel free to ask us anything you would like, and we will answer right here in the thread. 
      Thanks for your help and ride safe. 
      BTW, let us know what "anything goes" means for this thread section.

      I own a few older quads mix of kinds a couple of  Yamahas, a Honda, can-am  a Kawasaki, they are older quads but in good shape the question of the day is....... what's the best way to polish up the plastic?
       I have found that Dollar General mold remover is good to get the black stuff off the plastic works good, but was wondering how you polish up the plastics on yours.

      Snow Shoe Rails to Trails held their annual chicken BBQ event. Food sold out in one hour! (400 dinners) They had a drive through option for those who were not riding.  Weather was warm, but cooled off decently at night. Was good to finally get out camping and riding.

      Another great weekend at Snow Shoe Rails to Trails for their annual pig roast. Thursday and Friday nights were quite cool at night. We run a buddy heater in the tent to keep warm. One of our members brought a drone and was able to get some cool video. Ill have to put it together and upload it to Youtube. They were sold out of food by 2:15pm. Trailhead was packed and they had to use two overflow areas for parking. I took a few snapshots from the drone video. One is a railroad viaduct that a few years ago we were able to cross it on our quads. It has been closed for a few years now.
