Mark J Wenger (Animal) 757-253-0056 (H) markwenger@cox.net  We will leave from Williamsburg at 5:00PM Friday and pick up anyone in Richmond at exit 173 on I-64 commuter lot, grab a quick dinner and take I-64 west to exit 96 to 664 to Lyndhurst to Coal Road 610/608 to the parking lot for Cellar Mountain trail and camp at the trail head.  On Saturday we will hike Cellar Mountain trail to the forest road to Bald Mountain trail to Mine Bank trail to St. Mary's trail and camp there at the ore processing site.  For those who do not want to hike 14 mile and cut it to 8 can take the St. Mary's trail straight down the from the forest road.  On Sunday we will hike the St. Mary's trail up to the forest road back to Cellar Mountain and the cars.  This is one of my favorite areas.  The trails are unmarked and water is thin in parts but camping by the St. Mary's River is great and if we get there early on Saturday we can play in the falls.
