Lincoln County, West Virginia

Lincoln County is in the southwestern part of the state, not far from Kentucky. Coal production is strong here. You won’t find any big cities here. Just small towns and tight-knit communities.
The landscape? Pure Appalachia. Hills, forests, and winding roads. Hunting is a big hobby here and so is four-wheeling. The Guyandotte River cuts through, offering some prime fishing spots.
Folks here are fiercely independent. They have a deep love for their land and their way of life. It’s not for everyone, but those who get it, really get it.
