AdventureSeen.com is adopting the "No Fracking Pipeline in the George
Washington National Forest" slogan to spread the word and to add value
to the AdventureSeen lifestyle ride videos. Protecting the places we
ride is just as important as trailwork.
A few of the boys from the crew rolled out to Cliff Trail and shot this short video.
Cliff Trail Lifestyle Ride: No Fracking Pipeline in the GWNF! from Adventure Seen on Vimeo.
Harrisonburg's backyard is famous for long climbs, ripping
descents, rocky tech and destination quality trails thanks to the GWNF.
The George Washington National Forest is one of the largest federally
managed public lands on the east coast. Natural gas production in the
forest is currently banned and it needs to stay that way. Dominion
Power has proposed a natural gas pipeline that is slated to cross the
most remote and magnificent ridges in the forest to transport
petrochemicals from fracking sites in West Virginia to export centers in
North Carolina. Not only would pipeline construction interfere with
ecosystems and watersheds, but it would be infrastructure for
directional drilling in the forest.
