The steep slopes of the Trough are forested primarily with oaks, hickories, and Virginia pine with several rock outcrops visible on both sides. The two wooded ridges that define The Trough make it inaccessible from either side. Entry into The Trough is only by the South Branch Valley Railroad (the SVBR, along the foot of Mill Creek Mountain) or by canoe or other boat.
Geography
The Trough is a narrow valley bounded by Mill Creek Mountain to its west and Sawmill Ridge (1,716 feet) to its east with the SBPR flowing in between them. The Trough's opening is located at the southern slopes of Mill Creek Mountain and Sawmill Ridge at McNeill in Hardy County. Mill Creek Mountain is made up of several steep ridges and knobs while Sawmill Ridge is one long continuous sharp ridge. River Ridge (1,906 feet) is the first of Mill Creek Mountain's ridges to rise over the South Branch. For canoeists, The Trough officially begins at the SVBR's wooden trestle at Sycamore just below where Stony Run joins the river.
After twelve, not so well Won't pretend it's too soon to tell What's around this bend No disgrace, about face Anything not to have to chase You down again You know nothin' hurts like losin' When you know it's really gone Except for the pain of choosing To hold too long I tried it your way But I got nothin' to show It's been the same, same And the story's getting old So I guess the driveway Will be the end of the road For us it's too late Let the credits start to roll A lot to say, but not today Let the radio break the silence As we drive A kiss goodbye, not this time Don't remember what about This song I ever liked You know nothin' hurts like losin' When you know I'm already gone Except for the pain of choosing To hold too long I tried it your way But I got nothin' to show It's been the same, same And the story's getting old So I guess the driveway Will be the end of the road For us it's too late Let the credits start to roll I thought maybe we were getting somewhere But we're still nowhere at all I watched your taillights fading I try but it still won't fall I remember what it feels like To know love and have it taken away I can't think of what I learned right now But I'll be thanking you someday I tried it your way But I got nothin' to show You know, it's been the same, same And the story's getting old So I guess the driveway Will be the end of the road For us it's too late Let the credits start to roll Let the credits start to roll So I guess the driveway Will be the end of the road Be the end of the road Will be the end of the road
