We call them roads (dirt road)! If it's got gravel then it's a gravel road, if it's paved then it's a street, if it's paved and the speed limit is 55mph+ then it's a highway. Thank the Lord Jesus Christ for them making a road for these people. God bless you all.
Proud of our West Virginia miners for lending a helping hand to our North Carolina neighbors. As President John F. Kennedy said, “The sun does not always shine in West Virginia, but the people always do.” 💙💛💙💛

I’m a West Virginian and couldn’t be prouder of our boys! The Politicians both National and Local have done nearly nothing to help the folks of North Carolina, they weren’t there to build a highway, they were there to build a road that help could travel on to the people! ❤️
Can an 18 wheeler go down the road? Can flatbeds go down to get damaged cars? Does it meet NC DOT requirements for width, grade etc? Did they randomly carve road in people’s front yards with out proper compensation or permits?
@@macking104: Put yourself in their shoes, you would want supplies as soon as possible . This is ONLY a temporary path so small vehicles can assist the survivors . Apparently you want people to die waiting for supplies, just because they can't drive 18 wheelers on unpaved "winding cow paths " Explain how you get permission to construct a temporary road from a dead property owner ??.
@macking104 it's a dirt road, a fresh new dirt road. Also, No 18 wheeler or any other extremely heavy vehicles like that will be going anywhere near those areas for a while yet. Paved or not. Also dirt roads are still in NC and thru out the US. Used everyday. Yes, sometimes by big rigs. The point the TT user was making was this, WV Boys went and built a stable road, a dirt one, where as FEMA and all others had to wait for the red tape, planning and money. This road wasn't meant to be permanent but to allow easier access to that area quickly and for it to be stable. It so far seems to be doing the job, even if it's just a dirt road.
There were dirt roads before any gravel or paved roads .damn sheriff wasn't doing anything to help these people but the miner's did and all they get is grief for taking off work and spending their time and money to help only to get crucified ol you should have got permission to go across here and there hell after that flood no one nos for sure where the property lines are or where the ones that own it are at. guys don't let these few assholes get you down I know they're more that thank you for doing what you did and you will be rewarded one day maybe while you're working under the mountains of wild and wonderful West Virginia stay safe when your working 6" from Hell
I live in central NC and was not affected by hurricane Helene, yet, my thoughts and prayers are still with my fellow North Carolinians as they continue to recover from this awful storm. I have seen a video here on UA-cam about the West Virginia Boys helping here in NC. I know that communication has been difficult in the areas that have been hit the hardest but I know the people in this area appreciate the help from the West Virginia Boys.
What a jackass! Did the sheriff ever hear of a “Dirt Road”? I guess the sheriff wants a 4 Lane interstate highway with rest facilities? Did the sheriff go to Bat Cave and help with the road construction? This is the problem with much of the world today……no one is thankful.
And if it were black folks, (which, let's be honest, will never be), that sheriff would interview with every local news affiliate, bragging bout, 'Just how good of a job they all done'--and how these fine Basketball Americans selflessly contribute to the community. It's all so tiresome.
West Virginia foke don't F around, we get it done , and don't recall any of these big wigs getting there hands dirty , only things hurd from them was you can't but we did or your not aloud to. Stand proud West Virginia cause we are strong. Oh yeah TRUMP 2024 🇺🇸
@hackyman7815 Hate to rain on that parade, but Trump isn't our savior. He's just a pressure relief valve, selected to quell the growing angst of the White American demographic.

Its what it is! Its an amazing job with an "access road" to help the families. Its not a DOT road, but if you can get a horse or 4 wheeler or side by side over it then they accomplished what they intended.
If there is a road where there was none. They build a road. Give credit where its due. People were trapped without that road. How come the military hadnt been there putting in temporary roads. Should have been there day 1.
@barbrice 721 :The military and other first responders jobs are to rescue people and perform first aid first. Those hundreds of miles of temporary roads weren't built in just one day. If you are so concerned, go and help in relief effects . I'm a retired tradesperson and have 25 years experience as a trained volunteer first responder.
@@frankwhitson2191 What first responders. She didn't show up till Monday. There was no Fema there till she came. It was private citizens rescuing. Joe sat on the beach did nothing. And she partied all weekend with celebrities for money.
@@barbrice721: She didn't want to pull responders and police from recovery efforts and seeing the damage on TV or from a chopper doesn't give you the total picture of damages. I saw the area hit by hurricane Andrew in 92 two weeks after it hit. They didn't get the rain and flooding like NC got but people didn't even recognize their own neighborhoods and the topography is totally different Do you live in that section of North Carolina ?
@@frankwhitson2191 There was none but citizens. Till Monday. 5 days after. Then just Fema. There was only locals no roads. Civilian helicopters that were threatened for bring people out of the hills. Military didn't get called in til the next Thursday or Friday.
Sheriff of Bat Cave, I saw a video of a woman who was visited by a Sheriff. He had a brown, old thrift store looking uniform that said sheriff. He had glasses, red hair and a red mustache and small beard. He was seen arresting a woman and taking her children for no reason other than the woman's house was in bad condition from the flood. Something fishy going on. Please look into it. There are underground facilities there and he may have came up from below ground looking for children for nefarious purposes. His eyes were dark with no light coming out of them like most people's eyes.
So he is saying old roads that were built-in the days of our forefathers away from the river should not be used it used to once a road always a road. But One rich person in the neighborhood can buy all your God giving Rights to live free and simple. No one should be able to block anyone from getting to their land. So what the sheriff is really saying that peice of land below the people on the Hill is worth more than human life. A crying shame I know we have over fifty thousand dollars in our right of way the family has had since the civil war
People try listening before commenting. WV boys claimed ti have built a road. A small dirt road is very limited on what vehicles can use it safely. BTW a four wheeler is not a car!
Didn't you see the pickups driving on it it's a dirt road you must live in the city and only think a road is paved got news for you the dirt road comes before the paved one's or concrete ones
Private Property...Hmm ,Here In West Virginia there is thousands of acres supposedly owned by individuals and they don't even live on it....What a waste of land being consumed for the Rich Folks only......A Popular sign used here reads "NO Trespassing " It's Ashame...........period
Many off grid people own lots of land and they aren’t rich… would you want city taking 20 feet of your or family members front yard without compensation?
@@macking104It's amazing how wealthy folks are here in WV ,But it is considered one of the poorest states within the United States.....? It's also funny here in WV how many older folks are retired here after 30 years of working and still are in the work field consuming high paying jobs that should be available to the younger generation, Folks that are here within their 60's , 70's and 80's are hurting the younger generation with that mentality ..... Young people here don't have a chance right now.....Sad it is !
@@macking104: That 20 feet of land is an "involuntary loan of land" to replace roads washed away from the hurricane ! Is your last name Hatfield or McCoy cause it sounds like you like feuding .
Well since they had no type of road and wouldn't have gotten one for many months; the WV Boys made one; a stable dirt road. It isn't a path but a road. The Mountains will have a lot of dirt roads shortly and will be used for a long time. It takes time to make a paved one. Dirt roads have been around NC for a long time. Fortunately, NC is funded enough to make almost all dirt roads paved now; and Charlotte and other major cities forgot about them. Thank you WV Boys! 🇺🇲❤️🤍💙

www.qcnews.com/news/investigations/henderson-co-sheriff-putting-context-into-viral-west-virginia-boys-work-in-bat-cave/
why wasnt it clear by NC people?
I think they’re overwhelmed, physically and mentally.
Damn shame yall can't even give the folks credit.
I never thought they paved a road just that they cleared a path basically. I heard No misinformation.
This Sheriff is just like the Chimney Rock Asst. Fire Chief that threaten to arrest a helicopter pilot for saving someone.
God bless the people of NC and all those helping including the WV BOYS!!
The sheriff EMBARRASSED himself..

That sheriff needs his Man Card revoked.
That would have taken DOT months to build to that point.

A little story of Battle of Blair mountain will tell you what would’ve happened if the government tried to stop them. Much love from West Virginia!
Mountaineers always free!
I see a payola issue for those “ in authority “!
Don’t believe your eyes folks 😄 that’s not a road. It’s a candy cane.
