I'm thinking of starting with a night spent at Snowshoe Resort, arriving early enough to spend the first part of the first day adventuring through Snowshoe Resort itself.
Then bright and early the following morning, I'd hop in the car and head to the Greenbank Observatory. It's free, it's educational, it's a world record holder. Sounds like a recipe for adventure to me!
After such an adrenaline inducing experience, I would need a cool down, and my cool down of choice would be this Seneca Rocks swimming hole, if the weather was warm enough.
Finally, I'd close out the day with a quick trip to Bickle Knob Lookout Tower to catch the golden hour, a fitting end to my thrilling West Virginia adventure road trip.
