Overlook at East River Mountain Draws Visitors and Bears
motorists from Virginia back up at the East River Mountain Tunnel and ascend to the overlook where picnic shelters restrooms and a concession area were prepared. Chelsea Romeo and her daughter visited the site as a teenager while MCCVB notes traffic spikes since last May. The area drew Bluefield and MarionVa residents along with local bears attracted to trash prompting bear-proof receptacles and increased trash pickups.
