For the Sods the best resource is - http://www.wvhighlands.org/ (but their site seems to be down).

Alternatively there's a map from the forest service: http://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_DOCUMENTS/stelprdb5152038.pdf

This site looks like they might have maps: http://www.jtphillips.com/DollySodsMaps/

As does this if you ahve GPS device: http://www.trailgraphics.com/mnf-trail-network-kml-for-google-earth/

As far as a general guide for the area, you can't beat: http://www.amazon.com/Monongahela-National-Forest-Hiking-Guide/dp/0961655321

These are your best bets for "on the map" places in rough order of increasing distance from Morgantown. You can google any of them.

  • Baker's Ridge Trails
  • West Virginia Botanic Garden
  • Coopers Rock State Forest
  • Quebec Run Wild Area
  • Ohiopyle State Park
  • Otter Creek Wilderness Area

    And these are all a bit further away:

  • Blackwater Falls State Park
  • Laurel Creek Wilderness Area
  • Savage River State Park
  • Canaan Valley State Park
  • Canaan Valley Wildlife Refuge
  • Dolly Sods Wilderness Area
  • Seneca Backcountry near Spruce Knob
  • THE NORTH FORK MOUNTAIN TRAIL

    Of these, Otter Creek Wilderness is, in my opinion, the best place you could go within 1.5 hrs of Morgantown for a hike. Bring good maps and a compass, because there is no signage. I recommend scanning this book's maps from the WVU library if you can.
