West Virginia Route 99 is an east–west state highway in southern West Virginia. The western terminus of the route is at West Virginia Route 85 northeast of Kopperston in the rural southeast corner of Boone County. The eastern terminus is at West Virginia Route 3 in Glen Daniel.
The section of WV 99 west of Bolt was constructed after 1968. Most of this stretch, approximately the westernmost 8 miles (13 km), is built in a nearly continuous series of cuts in the side of Guyandotte Mountain.
Famous quotes containing the words west and/or route:
“One perceives that again and again she has destroyed her life when it was forming into shapes of happiness because of her loyalty to the early misery, her conviction that that has the sanction of ultimate reality, and that beside it all other things are trivial.”
—Rebecca West (1892–1983)
“The route through childhood is shaped by many forces, and it differs for each of us. Our biological inheritance, the temperament with which we are born, the care we receive, our family relationships, the place where we grow up, the schools we attend, the culture in which we participate, and the historical period in which we live—all these affect the paths we take through childhood and condition the remainder of our lives.”
—Robert H. Wozniak (20th century)
