Another example of a coal ''strip mine'' in Wyoming, County. What is now known as mountaintop removal has scarred much of West Virginia from much of its natural beauty...Run-offs into many hollows without proper guidelines has been also one of strip mining's big problems. Reclaimation of the land still takes time to regrow to the degree that had previously been there !
