THE ADVENTURE BEGAN on 8/20/2025, when the SLV Motorcycle Group traveled upstate to Oconee County near Walhalla, SC. We ate at the Mountain View Restaurant in West Union. It was great small town home cooking! Next, we toured Stumphouse Park which includes the Stumphouse Tunnel and Issaqueena Falls. The Stumphouse Tunnel was intended to connect railroad lines from Charleston, SC to Knoxville, TN and eventually Cincinnati, OH. The tunnel goes approximately ¼ of a mile through the mountain and was started in 1830. The tunnel was never completed due to the Civil War and the collapse of the state’s economy. Issaqueena Falls was beautiful, unfortunately pictures cannot capture the experience of viewing it. We ended our adventure with a visit to the Walhalla State Fish Hatchery. Several species of Trout are raised there and released in nearby lakes and streams. We traveled 226 miles and spent 8 hours on our trip. Mark Dawson, Mike Johnson, Jim Corn, and Dennis Erickson participated in the ride. There are many things to see and experience within 3 hours of SLV. Just go on a day trip once in a while.
