We're back in Appalachia! This recording captures about an hour on the banks of the New River in the southeastern part of West Virginia’s pan — you can call it a pan right? When I lived in Jefferson County folks to the west called us panhandlers.You’ll hear Sandstone Falls, the calls of local birds and insects, and a couple of trains rumbling by (midway and end).This week’s episode was recorded by regular uncommon ambience contributor Dr. April Blakeslee (who is a researcher and associate professor of Biology at Eastern Carolina University). Her travels brought her recently to New River Gorge and specifically the Sandstone Falls area. Thank you Dr. April!(obviously the New Rive Gorge Bridge is twenty miles as the crow flies from the Sandstone Falls but as a bridge freak I couldn’t resist adding a fave bridge to my episode cover... and don't get me started about CBBT).
