I would like to take the time to recognize Spruce Knob-Seneca Rocks on their 50th year as a national recreation area. Spruce Knob-Seneca Rocks National Recreation Area was established by an act of Congress on September 28, 1965, and has been enjoyed by families from all over the country ever since. It is located in Pendleton County in the eastern panhandle area of my district in West Virginia. I was lucky enough to have had the privilege to visit just last month. As the only true peak on the East Coast of the United States, it lures rock climbers from all around and boasts some of the most spectacular scenery on this side of the Mississippi. Let me tell you, it is even more beautiful in person. Don't take my word for it, though. I encourage everyone to plan a trip to this national treasure. Life at Conception Act
