McKendree

McKendree Rd from Prince to Thurmond

Miners Hospital Number 2 was established at McKendree in 1900 or 1902, the second of three Miners' hospitals established by the State of West Virginia in the coal-mining regions to serve miners and their families. In 1910 the population of McKendree was 61 according to the W. Va. Geological Survey.
The hospital's name was changed from Miners' Hospital No. 2 to the McKendree Hospital in April, 1916. A superintendent's house and nurses' building was constucted, about 200 feet west of the hospital building during 1916-17. The original six and one half acre site of the institution was increased to 121 acres after a few years. Vegetables were grown on the facility's grounds, apple tree were planted on the grounds, and pigs and hogs were raised and butchered on site.

@kleerworks1 There's some ATV trails off Batoff Mtn, I never ventured across them since I was always riding alone. But there are "commercial" ATV trails down near Sophia, place called Burning Rock and then there's the Hatfield trails near Gilbert. I've rode some fire trails and stuff but I'm not familiar with them enough to comment on them

Do you ride much around that area? I grew up there and I would love to know if there's any good ATV/UTV trails we could ride on. Send me a message if you know of any. Would love to show my family and friends how beautiful that area is up close and personal.
