The great wide open
American Electric Power has put together an awesome recreational area from the ReCreated wilderness near McConnellsville, Oh!
The Equine Trailhead camping area is adjacent to the Trailhead. There are picnic tables, fire rings, a pavilion and room for horse trailers as well as several tents. Porta pots are the only available facilities but that's the whole reason you go to the wilderness is to pee in the weeds right? Pre print your permit, your stay is free. No signal that I could find. Gravel roads in are well graded and new. Go online to get maps and additional info.
