A two-day seminar on the ecology of high-mountain forests recently took place at Snowshoe. What could be a more appropriate site for such an event? After all, Snowshoe is part of the natural habitat for such endangered species as the Cheat Mountain salamander and the West Virginia northern flying squirrel, both of which were cited during recent massive construction projects such as the creation of Sawmill Village and the new access road from Route 66.
