I've done it a million times

• 79 South to Exit 99
• 33 East to Elkins
• 219 South to Snowshoe
• Left on Rte 66 (just before the Fiddlehead and Ski Barn)
• Left up Snowshoe Drive to the top of the Mtn.

Depending on what part of the burgh you are coming from - plan on 4 hours.

Notes:

• Do not speed in Elkins
• There are only a few gas stations from Elkins - Snowshoe
• Watch for deer on 219 S - especially a few miles from rte 66. 

Thanks Blue Don. I appreciate the speed warning also.
