Trail of the Month: Allegheny Highlands Trail, W.Va.
For a 24.5-mile tour through canyons, rushing creeks and mountainsides, head to northeastern West Virginia, where winding views and wooded serenity are on abundant display.

Tell Us... In May, we asked you to tell us how you use your local rail-trails for a greener commute. Whether saving money, enjoying wildlife and the scenery, running errands or decompressing after a day's work, these trail users found their chores more fun, and their commutes more refreshing.

Next Month...How do you beat the summer heat and stay cool on rail-trails? Do you wear specialized clothing to hide from the sun? Or maybe you use the trails to reach rivers and lakes to take a dip or enjoy other water sports? Whatever your trick, we'd love to hear about it. E-mail Karl at karl@railstotrails.org to share your stories.

Greetings From ... the first four inductees to the Rail-Trail Hall of Fame. Check out spring tidings from our latest issue of Rails to Trails, and meet four of the country's finest pathways.
