Kayford Mountain

A couple of weeks ago I took a trip with the Ohio University chapter of the Sierra Student Coalition to Kayford Mountain, West Virginia. Larry Gibson hiked up with our small group to see what his backyard looks like: a mountaintop removal site. I did not know much about mountaintop removal before the trip and am still not sure how to look at the issue. But this guy sure is dedicated to what he does. I don't think I have ever seen someone so passionate about a subject even after 23 years of fighting for it.
