Time stands still high above Canaan Valley, in Dolly Sods, where a flat, windswept expanse of subalpine heath barrens opens up to the sky. Stunted red spruce, ancient bogs and forlorn boulders define this haunting landscape, where creatures typically found in more northern environs roam oblivious to their geologic isolation. The Nature Conservancy�s 477-acre Bear Rocks Preserve is a cornerstone of this wonderfully diverse and complex ecosystem, which lies on a ridge crest that forms part of the Eastern Continental Divide.

Born and raised in Eastern West Virginia, Brian Simpson has always had a deep love for the outdoors. Lately, he has been channeling this passion into his hobby of photography. His photos capture the forests, wildlife, peaks and valleys of the Appalachian Mountains. When he is not capturing nature with his camera, Brian enjoys spending time with his wife Michelle, their three children and one grandchild.
