The Monongahela National Forest has announced the reopening of Forest Road 209 and Stonecoal Dispersed Camping Area as of Thursday, August 14.

The Stonecoal dispersed camping area, located along the upper Shavers Fork of the Cheat River, has long been a popular area for anglers and campers. This upper section of the river is one of the highest elevated rivers in the eastern United States. The Stonecoal area is located on Cheat Mountain between the towns of Durbin and Huttonsville on Route 250. The campground received its name from the stream leading into the sites, called Stonecoal Run.

Stonecoal is popular with fishermen, especially when trout have recently been stocked, which happens quite a lot during the spring through fall. Shavers Fork has lots of shallow water areas, but also deep, large pools, and it flows for much of its length through the Monongahela National Forest. The campground features 15 sites for RV's and tents with a perfect view of the river. In the dispersed camping area are two vault toilets, and further towards the end of the road along the river is a natural spring for drinking water.
