From 1870 to 1920, more than 30 billion board feet of timber was cut in West Virginia—enough to build a 13-foot-wide boardwalk from Earth to the moon. Most of that timber came from the area now within the Monongahela National Forest, a region which today is using trails to redefine its future while still honoring its past.
Commissioned for the Lost Towns of the Mon art installation in the Tygart Hotel in Elkins, West Virginia, this limited-edition woodblock print was hand-carved into plywood made from cherry, a native Appalachian hardwood, and printed on a custom, large-scale etching press.
One of the four copies is on permanent display in the lobby of the Tygart Hotel.
