My favorite thing to watch on youtube, even if it's for the fifth time. I've been trying to find an arrowhead for 12 years, Clegg finds five every time he goes out!
Thanks Ray! Location Location Location. 👍
Same here! Never been lucky enough, unfortunately for me all the banks of streams and rivers near me have pebbles and rocks for banks, nothing sandy. I guess that the reason. I’d love to learn more though, sometimes it’s the hunting that’s the best part, good luck Ray
Finally found my first unbroken point in new years. I went years without but this year I've found about 4 broken points, a pestle, few manos and the unbroken point. I kept feeling like I was going to wake up any moment lol. I was starting to think I never would find one
Having grown up Sistersville, we use to find soooo many amazing artifacts at the river. Great to see someone documenting this! Now to binge the rest of the channel!
@@BLAndrew575- Much Appreciated.
I have grown up around the mounds in Central ohio, spent many hours running around looking at them, but no matter how old I get, they never fail to amaze me !
I’m the same way
There is a site called Reservoir Stone Mound in my area. Most people have never heard of it but according to the local history, it was the largest stone pyramid north of Mexico. Unfortunately, it was destroyed for the stone to be used in Buckeye Lake during the canal times and later by vandalism. There are still remains, tho according to ODOT, who surveyed it in the 90s . Once I get permission from the land owner, I hope to document what's left . Reminds me of the runway in the video, mostly just relics left. Unfortunately.
Love Cleggs adventures.....
Much Appreciated 👍
Congrats on the pop bottle, and thanks for all your great content...All of your videos are fantastic...
Much Appreciated
Yes....I used to live 2 houses down from you. Had 3 daughters just a little younger than you. Really enjoying your vids. I'm really interested in local history and genealogy, so your channel really hits the spot for me.
Another great episode, still looking, haven’t found anything yet
Thanks Much! 👍 you’re Due!
Keep looking you’ll find one eventually
I’m from Miamisburg Ohio and it has one of the two tallest mounds in the eastern US. You may have heard of it or perhaps visited it. What many people don’t know is the downtown of Miamisburg was at one time a large ceremonial platform overlooking the Great Miami River. It was made of clay and some of the buildings in town were made of bricks from that clay. Love your channel.
I’d love to see that! I’m about 20 miles from Moundsville , there’s a big one there also with a museum
@@cleggsadventures You should go check it out. Awesome views from the top. My wife and I moved this year and we’re now near the Great Serpent Mound which is pretty awesome as well. I’m familiar with the area that you hunt for points. I used to deer hunt outside of New Matamoros and my wife’s grandparent’s farm was near Williamstown West Virginia. Keep up the good work.
Another great video! Glad more people are finding your channel. Your videos are always great entertainment. Thanks for taking the time to do them.
Thanks a Bunch! Lots of work! Well, you know already how much work
Lots of piles of rocks in some of the wooded area here in Atlanta. I've never considered them to be anything ancient. Left over rifle pits from
civil war camps. Love your channel.
Thanks Stan! I’m not positive that’s what they were, but being on a small flat on the side of the hill like that, I’d say it’s probably graves. Maybe a family cemetery from 1,000 years ago.

You always get me excited about finding stuff, thank you.!
Thanks William👍
I love your excitement!!! Makes me smile.
Much Appreciated
As always enjoyed watching thanks for sharing
Thanks So Much!👍
The river sure was a treasure trove for you today! Glad you found such a beautiful bottle. Thank you for the run way trip! Very interesting! Great vidio!! I much enjoyed! Thank you. Take care and happy hunting.
Thanks Much Norma!👍❤️
I'm the 420th 👍🤣awesome video again. I'm playing catch up with your videos, wish I discovered you years ago.
Thank you !👍
Always love your stuff brother Clegg! Fun to watch!
Much Appreciated! New one out soon 👍 Best One Yet coming up.
Some nice stuff today - glad to see you getting out again.
Thanks Guy! I’ll always be back, just takes a lot of work.
Another awesome adventure with awesome finds!
Thanks Brother!👍
That was awesome. Can’t wait to see more videos.🤙🏻
Thank you! Always in the making.👍
Great find on the hutch!!!! Enjoyed the show, thanks for taking the time to bring it to us👍🏹
Thanks so Much!👍
Thanks for the adventure! Interestingly, it is recognized that the current Ohio River from Pittsburgh PA to Cairo IL did not always flow as it currently does. The current river is comprised of various ancient stream beds which typically flowed northward. The Ben Run Ruins are at a division point of the current Ohio. The ancient streams and their watersheds divided at that point such that the waters to the east flowed to the east and north toward the Pittsburgh area and on to Lake Erie. Additionally, the waters west of Bens Run flowed westward and somewhat northerly at one point. It was not until later in pre-history that the Ohio (known as the Allegheny in our early historic times) Valley was formed with its current watershed and flow. Perhaps this info will shed light on the significance of this site. Again thanks for the video!
That had to have been long long before humans made there way here, these valleys are cut deep.
West Virginia and her idiosyncratic ways. LOls. ... Water runs South... WV replys, ' Really? Hmm. "
Great vid as always Scott nice points and great save on that hutch!
Thanks Much! That one got me excited!
Digging bottle a while and still no hutch. Bucket list for sure. Awesome find😊
That was my first whole one
As usual this is an outstanding video. I'm enjoying your excitement and enthusiasm!
Thanks Jim!👍
Not suggesting this would be a good site, but here is a story told to me by my relative, a building contractor who was constructing a home in Racine, WV. They kept uncovering Native American artifacts. One evening, the home owner was examining the progress in the home, and the lights kept going out. He looked through a window and saw what appeared to be an Indian. I know how crazy it sounds. Had the story not come from people i know to be honest and trustworthy, i would dismiss it.
great work man !!!!
@@warrencrabtree9779 Much Appreciated
Scott. I just found your videos a few weeks back. Wow, I love the adventures. Please keep up your great work. I am going to retire this year and I am getting great ideas for my adventures from watching your adventures. Again outstanding work . Thank you. John near Granbury Texas
Thanks Much John! I hope you film, would love to see what ya get into
Clegg, you are such a 🔥 mess and so much fun to watch ! Thanks for the memories.🎶😉🤣😊
Thanks Lizzy! I hope a “🔥 mess” is a good thing.❤️
Really enjoyed this adventure!! Made me laugh and was informative as always🤣Thanks for sharing!
Thanks So Much!👍
Excellent historical and archaeological video! You do a great job of exploring an ancient site. This is VERY similar to the Newark Earthworks - Circle : there’s a very large circular earth mound / wall that is like a castle moat surrounding what I believe was the village. This makes sense as a protective barrier from animals and other tribes, even blocking some weather - winds and snow perhaps.
In Cancun: there is a place called Tulum that I visited - huge pyramids for the sun and moon and carvings but the most interesting part is the wall (all stone) that surrounds the small city : it has one ingress and egress opening : the entrance only tall and wide enough for one person at a time.
Great videos - keep them coming!
I’m right up the river in Wheeling and would love to visit and meet you on the river some day for artifact hunting!!
Best of luck!
Thanks Zin, I was also in Tulum in 2015. Very interesting place.
Hey buddy, I live in Owensboro Ky and back in the 90’s an Ironworker I worked with he was a mussel fisherman and he pulled up a tusk from a Woolley Mammoth!! I kid you not. And a few years later he pull up a skull of one,,, they were both out the Ohio River just a mile south of downtown Owensboro.
I don’t find anything like that, or I haven’t yet. I’d flip
Very entertaining. Your comment about Chester cracked me up. I noticed you had Chester's limp at the end of the video 😄
LOL I watch that all the time. Great show, I prefer Chester over Festus
Another good one Scott!
Thanks guy!
Love your videos and channel! Thanks.
Thanks Much!👍
As a fellow West Virginian, I've been watching for a minute and rarely comment. I find education and amusement in every episode. But, that comment about Chester had me in tears! I still haven't found out why he walks like that. I'm guessing it was a Yankee bullet. But, I digress...thank you for doing what you do and keep up the great work.
Thanks So Much! He had a stiff leg for some reason. Ever see him run? Classic show!
@@cleggsadventures I've seen him run and ride a horse. I feel some research must be done in the life of Chester Good!
@@thegreatowl4912 I liked him more than Festus
Excellent find Scott! Beautiful old bottle.
First whole one of those I’ve found. And it was my home town. Much Appreciated
I wish you could make more videos, I know it’s very time consuming, you are very entertaining, I love your enthusiasm!
As the channel grows, I’ll be able to. But if I put out a video without preparing properly, it just wouldn’t be the quality that most subscribe for. But summer is coming so we should get out much more.
“We’re only looking.” I say similar things thanks for the fun adventure.
Thank you Much !👍
Very interesting history in those hills!! Awesome finds as well 👏, keep on doing your thing man, the adventures never stop🤘, 9,000 subs soon to come! And many more! Careful out there ✌️
Thanks Brother, I’m hopeful.
Just wondering about the compass orientation of the road.
Congrats on the bottle. Love your excitement. Ive been there too.
Thanks much!👍
Been with you since 2,000 subs, you still have some of the best content out there. Keep it up!
Thank you! Much Appreciated👍
Great video ! Thanks 👍
Thanks John 👍
I think those things are for signaling across the valley. There was probably someone up there 24/7 to warn or notify of game, invaders or any kind of news. Great video! Thanks! ❤
That could very well be. Thank you
Nice little corner notch there at first. Keep up the great videos.
Much Appreciated Christopher!👍
i lovingly say "what an idiot" several times on each video!!! keep them coming
I like your tour de France cap and your aventure on the river .
Thanks Much👍
Awesome finds
Thanks Much!👍
Very nice Hutch!
I was very happy to find that!👍
Clegg, dude your killin’ me w/the lines “Checkis out, you ain’t gonna believe-dis!”. I love it man, I love it! Just started watching ur vid’s about 1-month ago & I’m hooked!!! Keep doing what your doing man, because YOU are right. It don’t get better-nis! Also, just so you know-I speak w/a major southern or “Missouri Hick”, draw! I’d love to set down w/you & learn from the “Master”!!
Thanks Scott!👍 Much appreciated
Love the vid clegg.
Much Appreciated 👍
Fantastic video I wait along time for you to post a new one keep it up
Thanks Tom! Time is limited but I’ll always be back 👍
Awesome finds brother Congrats on the bottle
Thanks! I was really happy to find that one wes!👍
Love watching a fellow wv .
Much Appreciated
Fort Ancient State Park in Warren Co. (think Kings Island) has many types of stone pavement, mounds, calendar, and more. Extremely nice museum there also. Every County in Ohio has yielded at least 1 Clovis point!
Would love to see it.
Just found your channel and we love it! Getting out on a creek paddle board trip today after a heavy rain 3 days ago . We can't wait to put some of your tips to use. Thank you buddy.
Thanks Much! River is totally flooded here
@@cleggsadventures I was wondering if you would be willing to look at pictures of recent finds and lend your expertise ?

@ Clegg’s Adventure’s thanks for sharing, we enjoyed watching your video this morning, we rarely get time to watch anything where we’re always trying to get content or grow our channel. Interesting topic and great delivery of the why….. appreciate you brother 👍
Thank Y’all! Very Much Appreciated! Been subscribed and watch all your stuff. You’ve been racking up the points, was on the edge of the seat when you pulled that heartbreaker serrated one last week.👍
@@cleggsadventures yes I know it was an awesome find that fortunately I was able to capture for everyone 👍💯
Hey brother we just wanted to let you know we’re doing a giveaway, we want you to get in on it, we didn’t want you to miss out. Good luck brother!

Enjoyed watching and subbed to your channel. Happy Hunting!
Much Appreciated 👍
Pretty cool stuff!
Much Appreciated
Best intro yet! “I’m not dead!”
Thank you! Was that a good hook?
Lol good show. Hell of a find.
Very Much Appreciated 👍
Cool bottle. Im upriver on the muskingum in zanesville. Was poking around looking for anything in a bit of washed out hillside on my place. No native artifacts but did find a green coca cola bottle dated Christmas 1923 Cambridge on the bottom... Sticking right up out of the ground. Wasn't even visible just last week. Poked around looks like an old dump I didn't know it was there before... Can't wait till I'm not so busy and I can start digging out some more goodies
Oh yeah, a Christmas Coke. Those are collectible
Awesome finds and that stone runway is really unusual and really gets the gears turning on what it was used for! You channel is very entertaining and informative and I think a network should pick you up so you can share your adventures even broader! Keep it up!
Thank you Shawn!👍
Very cool and informative video. I now know that I too have a Hutchison bottle. Found it years ago at an old forge site on property that was originally deeded to a revolutionary soldier. I also found an ingot of Babbit that the blacksmith would chisel off pieces to melt down and pour for bushings.
Thanks Much! Those bottles are hard to find around here, usually just pieces. I’ve worked with babbit before, helping with old oil wells. I find it on the river a lot
Cool video. That eagle had to be a ancient Indian spirit telling you not to dig lol. The timing was perfect. That was crazy!😆
Thanks, Much Appreciated 👍
That hutch is amazing. Still searching for my first. The invite to come dig with us is still wide open Clegg.
I was my first, all others were broken. Appreciate it Brother, If I’m ever south, I’ll look y’all up!👍
I love your videos, comedy, excitement of discovery & sharing of history all in one nice package. Your editorial cuts are classic, gotta love 'em! It's a great distraction of other events going on in the world today.
In regards to what that "runway" might be what is it's directional orientation? I was thinking to myself that it might be some sort of ceremonial procession walkway. It could be intended to depict the procession of the sun, the seasons or perhaps some sort of lore about the direction from which their ancestors came to arrive in that area? It could've also been some sort of lookout place or a boundary marking between different communities, what they perceived as the land of the living/dead or something else entirely.
I'm spitballing here so don't take any of it for gospel! lol
Hey, your guess is as good as any.👍 I doubt anyone will ever know. All we can do now is try piecing things together. The platform runs North and South. The Ohio River you can see below. Here’s a short read of the research done in 1927. You will find it interesting. I’m going to try and find the other locations mentioned. Thanks for the comment. Much Appreciated 👍

Beautiful artifacts today! As for the runway, its such a shame that "progress" occurred with so little thought to the works of the ancients. But you found a lovely Kuehne hutch, how awesome is that???💖
It was the highlight of the week! Thank you Cynthia👍
Ceramonial spot to connect with the creator
I was born in WV.
Very interesting video.
Thanks Much Charity!👍
We've got several places like this in North Georgia. Well known are Alec and Fort Mountains and Little Mulberry Park. Possibly these were ancient observatories. There is usually a lack of artifacts within the confines of these enclosed sites suggesting that they were used as ceremonial/religious areas as well. Thanks for showing these sites. It truly is fascinating. Collecting artifacts got me interested in their history and I enjoy finding these sites myself as I've located several in my county. I've found rock walls and sites with numerous stone heaps throughout the woods. The professional opinion on stone heaps is that they were some type of marker but not a grave. Upon excavating the heaps of stone no skeletal remains are located and rarely any artifacts underneath. They could possibly be a grave marker. All stone heaps in my area are on the sides of hills, associated with visually appealing landscape and are usually surrounding or along a spring head or small creek. I've located 3 rock walls that seemingly go nowhere but are cool to check out nonetheless.
Check this out. You may be correct on that.

@@cleggsadventures thanks I'll check that out
Live in n southern tip of Ohio on the river, 74 and looking for something to get into, fixing up a small pontoon to operate from the river and thanks for your inspiration!
Good luck out there
The pop bottle find was incredible!!! I can remember Brandon and Jill always wore Coca Cola swag in school because their family owned the distributor. Diet Coke was huge at the time. 'member? ....There musta been three or for different Frank Kuehne at different times in Sistersville! LOLs ... absolutely love the channel!!!!
Yeah, was to best bottle I’ve found, being a home town
@@cleggsadventuresI found a Hutchinson bottle from my hometown as well, my best bottle !! "LONGVIEW ICE, LIGHT AND BOTTLING Co.LONGVIEW TEXAS"😅
Happy Hunting ,Mr Clegg!
Wow!! Scott, that blue bottle with Frank Kuehne on it was an awesome find!!. I have a Sistersville Wva Frank Kuehne but never knew what it was. I figured it was a soda before the coke plant was there. Thanks for the input.
Thanks Rick! Do you know when the plant was built?
@@cleggsadventures I do not. But that is a good question an i would like to know as well. Do you know if the Frank Kuehne were bottled at the coke plant or was that a different plant? Also the bottle i have that has Frank Kuehne on it is just like the newer coke bottles with the metal pop tab on top. The one you found must be from the beginning an rare.
@@rickjames4630 I was always lead to believe that they were the first owners. I’m not sure, I’ll have to see if I can find out. I’d like to know the date on it
Trackrock ruins (not the petroglyphs) on top of the mountain in Towns County, GA are similar but not as strewn. I have not been to see them, but there are videos. I enjoy your channel and have learned a lot from your videos. Thank you!
Thanks fir the Information Shep! I knew there had to be more like it. Yea, it’s sad that the hill fell away like that.
I live just outside of Marietta,Ohio. I’ve found a lot of nice points every since I was a little kid walking plowed corn fields! There’s a lot of mounds around where I live and an small creek not far away with a cave and a mill ground rock where they cracked nuts and things ! Really enjoy watching your video! My guess is those rocks and mounds are biblical to the Giants! Been a lot of claim to giants bones in the mounds !
Much appreciated
One hillside would beat a tune an other hillside would turn same beat causing two echo in between it would have been something magical to hear.
Nice finds buddy
Thanks Brother 👍
Nice hutch I always wanted to find one
Thanks, it took me a while.👍
For what it's worth, my guess is the stone walls could've been for ceremonial purposes and the stone piles on the hillsides could've been related to the ceremonial stone wall. Maybe the Chief and other elders would be on the wall and the lower leaderships would each be where the stone piles were. But I don't know, that still seems kinda off. But I could also see the structures being used for more religious/spiritual purposes. But also, I could maybe see the wall and stone piles being used as defensive structures. But I can't figure out which side of hill they would be defending, considering there was perhaps a similar structure across the river on the WV side. It's all so fascinating!
Also, it does bother me that nothing is being done to preserve the stone wall and stone piles that still remain.
I'll check out that article.
There are similar “small mounds” that I recall finding out in the woods and hills outside Paris Landing, Tennessee. I have always thought that they were burial sites. Up on top of hill in a pine thicket on property my family used to own. I have since always wanted to go back there and try to get permission to investigate further. I was way young then. Land Between The Lakes.
I think there’s a lot more out there than people realize. Erosion can take a toll over that many years.
The giant fish at the damn story is a good one. I’ve heard that about giant catfish at Lake Texhoma,the size of those wagons. It was the same story they were big enough to eat you. And that they would charge ducks on top of the water and pull him under.
Yea, that story is all over 👍
Hello, Love your videos! I am about to read the article, but wanted to say mammoth bone have been found on Ohio, don't know about Mastadons. Also, when you were talking about the "tall tale" of the men who were digging and said it sounded hollow and the ground was going to give way....I thought, pyramid. Like the Mayans and Aztecs.
Anyway, keep up the great work!
I’m just glad the fellows documented all that in the 20’s
nice to see someone talk about pre tribal american natives , so many artifacts are from them but i don't hear much anout them oor their makers , doing it the same way down here in the south of texas , carry-on , peace , t. davis
Thanks Todd!👍
Great video Scott! Loved the informative tour of the runway. Are you familiar with the stone pathways that have been uncovered on Oak Island in Canada? Curse of Oak Island is the show. Rick and Marty Lagina are the hosts.
I can tell you their prehistoric runway was built by the Portuguese, I believe.
Probably not connected.
Great stuff. I’m enjoying your vids again today! 👍
Thanks Much! I have never watched that show before, but heard it was good
Where in the world are you? We need some more videos!
Working a lot. Next one will be good though 👍
I don't know about the first runway, but seeing as how there's another one on the other side the second one was probably a case of keeping up with the Jones's :)
Probably
There's a bunch of nice Indian burial mounds scattered throughout south central Ohio that most people don't even know about. We used to hunt points in a farmers field that was directly beside one of those mounds. I think the Indians used to pick the big open fields in between hills for their home base. No way anyone could ever sneak up on them in those locations, usually only one way in and one way out.
There’s probably more than we know
If I had to guess, I would imagine these stone platform/runways were probably sacred burial grounds. The burials up on stilts with a platform on top. Since it's high up on a ridge with 360 views, I would imagine the Indians thought the spirits of the dead could reach into the heavens with ease. Just a guess
I kind thought the same. Maybe the story is real.
Long time subscriber, first time commenter. The piled up rocks at the base of the runway or whatever it is are indeed Indian graves. I've seen the same type piles of rocks where I live near north central Md. I knew my great grandfather well, his grandfather told him the random piles of Rick's where we live are Indian graves. Also there is a similar runway at the top of the hill from the graves. My great grandfather never mentioned anything about it. He may have thought it to be natural which I did until I watched this video and remembered seeing it near the graves. I'm thinking it had something to do with a death in the tribe but it's still a mystery as to what. Thanks for an informative upload! 👍
Thanks for the comment William! Yea, I’d say the runways were maybe more common than we know. That runway sits right in a big narrow saddle on top of the mountain. The river is to one side and the stone piles were on the other side towards the bottom of the hill. There’s more ruins around there I’m trying to find, it must have been huge at one time. If you haven’t read the article on this place, please do. It was done in 1927. It may uncover more answers.

Incredibly interesting article. How the history of the people and why they disappeared is a question I would live to find answers to. Thanks for the link! The search continues
Hey Scott, I found my 1st artifact. I was working in my garden 2 days ago and laying right there was a dart point. We have a pretty good sized creek running though our property and thanks to you and your info, I will be building a sifter box and hitting it hard this spring and summer. Have you shown your entire collection in a video? If so, which one I would LOVE to see it. Thanks again Sir.
Hey, that’s great! Hope you find a nice one!👍
Another excellent video! Thanks for what you do.
Perhaps the runway platforms were observation posts / signaling sites for the nearby walled city?
Thanks Andrew! Could have been, I would say there were a lot of people at the time, especially with the size the Earthworks was. Probably a lot of fighting for land
@@cleggsadventures I spent a couple hours digging in an old bottle dump that appears to date from the early 1900's to the 1970's. I found six old mason jars (the earliest dating to around 1920), two license plates (dated 1934 and 1936) and a cool old iron stand.
@@Colichemarde Right On!👍
Wow, very interesting rock run way... Honestly i want to get out and start looking for ancient stuff. Im sure i could find nice stuff in the area of VA im in.
You should! 👍 never know what’s out there
Wow, I hope all is ok with you. I sure miss your videos. Thanks
Been working a lot. Soon as I get some time off. I’ll be back
Interesting on the stone runway. I understand that "fences" were done that way in the early 1800's. Sheep and such would not cross over it even just at 3 ft. high.
Never knew that
I think it’s interesting you have two runways within sight of each other. My first thought was, it might have been some shared ceremony date, and they might have lit fires or torches along the tops of those hills. I know they could have done that with out the rocks but peoples all over the world like to make rock structures…I do it anytime I have some time outside. :-)
It is strange. I visited a mound type structure in the last video. Just on the other side
Usually when you find piles of large stones in the woods it’s where farmers cleared them out of their fields for planting. Not sure how true it is, but heard it several times on different UA-cam videos of the same genre as yours.
I’ve heard this also, just didn’t seem like a farming location. Very hilly
I truly appreciate your video's. Thank you. Have you, or have you considered contacting anyone about the graves you found. I'm in CT and quite a few years ago 2 graves were exposed by erosion of an embankment overlooking the shore.
They were determined to be a man and woman of ancient Native Americans.
They were rightfully given to a local tribe who re-interned them according to tradition. Just a thought.
Again, thank you for your hard work.
Be careful. 😊
I’m not sure they were graves, just looked suspicious, those rick piles.
@@cleggsadventures I own 65 acres in Northern Michigan. There is a burial mound on my property. After checking the law (to make sure no government agency can steal my land) I passed the info about the burial mound to both State and Federal folks. Surprisingly, none of them really cared.
Although I'm forever searching my property for arrowheads (with no luck), the burial mound is strictly off-limits. Disturbing it for a "non-scientific purpose" would reduce the "coolness" of my property and seems morally wrong.
@@Colichemarde If I had it, I’d keep it clean and mowed. Maybe a fence around it with a memorial sign. These places around getting destroyed and like u said, nobody cares unless they’re interested in history
@@cleggsadventures The burial mound is in the middle of thick woods. My plan is to keep it natural and hidden so as not to attract attention to it. The only thing I might do is gently rake a little bit of erosion damage and take out a dead tree.
Id love to come to Ohio and Hunt with this guy. And I have family all over Ohio . I've already got the fever here in Kentucky and I guess I'll have to satisfy this addiction and go arrow head hunting
I’m in WV Wendell
@@cleggsadventures Even Better 😅 I used to come to Varney West Virginia to a church with some of my friends here in Harlan county Kentucky and WV is one of the prettiest states I've ever seen.
