Bear Rocks, Big Sky

Everyone's seen Bear Rocks (if you haven't, go, right now.), but when you get a beautiful morning with blue sky and streaky clouds and you are at Bear rocks, you feel lucky. Sunday morning. Achy legs. How about a ride. Bear Rocks is a guilty pleasure because you can drive all the way up to it. I took my mother there. I imagine lots of people have taken their mothers, grandmothers, grandfathers, anyone up there. Do it again--they repaired the road and it is a like a highway up there. You don't need to be a backcountry hiker to get there, and you don't need to be a super-naturalist to appreciate the simple beauty of the great, wide vista of the West Virginia Highlands.
