Seneca Rocks, Monongahela National Forest, West Virginia

Seneca Rocks is a lovely spot, to be sure.  This is the Potomac River!  It's little more than a trickle up here, close to its source in the West Virginia mountains.
Seneca Rocks is well worth a visit, and it's a bit of trudge getting to the top, but it's not exactly what I'd call a hike.  The trail is wide and groomed.  There's a parking lot and a visitors' center at the trailhead.  Innumerable throngs of non-outdoorsy-types make the ascent.  The view is the well-deserved reward. 
From the observation deck at the top of the mountain.
The Potomac again.
These are Seneca Rocks as seen from the parking lot.  They look more like something you'd find out west than in West Virginia.
