I love my home state, and hate seeing what's happening to her. As for the areas, mostly public ground..some private farms, but mostly areas that anyone can hunt. It was better when you didn't have to worry about 4 wheelers tearing up the fire trails..but that's another issue. About the only area of the state I haven't hunted yet, is the Northern Panhandle around Weirton... or the counties around Parkersburg.... soon,tho!
