Jackfert - Satori

Canaan Valley is a picturesque geographic region in northeastern Tucker County in West Virginia that’s known for its stunning scenic views and fun attractions.

Satori is the name of a friend’s house in Canaan Valley and is the Japanese word for “sudden
enlightenment.” The views here are nothing short of breathtaking. In this peaceful setting, one can gaze over the Valley while meditating upon the simple joys of life and appreciating the natural counterpoint of the region.
