Saturday, June 30, 1951
Route: from Beckley over W. Va 3 to Ivy Knob fire tower. Back
to Glen Daniel & over to Jesse, up W. Va 10 to Oceana &
over terrible dirt rd via Kepperton over mountain, through
Bald Nob etc & out eventually at Madison. Down U.S. 119,
52, 119, 460, 19 & 11 to nearly at Bristol for the night.
A very disappointing day with only 2 calendulaceum, no
cumberlandense or arborescens, bad roads, quantities of rain
& no cabins until 10.30 p.m. Heaven spare us from any
more of West Virginia!
