The valley of Quinnimont, deep in the New River Gorge sets covered in a blanket of snow after the first snowfall of 2012 and essentially the winter season left its foot print in the mountains of West Virginia the night before. A westbound empty grain train has just departed Hinton and snakes westbound along the banks of the New River, in this horseshoe design. A similar perspective as Hawks Nest, the overlook at Grandview is a popular overlook among summertime tourists.
