Let a good old Virginia boy gently correct you. It's "Shenandoah".

The valley of the Shenandoah River runs from northern Rockbridge County, Virginia NNE to its confluence with the Potomac River at Harper's Ferry, West Virginia.

An awful lot of war was fought through that valley 1861-1865.

After all, Daryl, I wouldn't call the Stikine River the "Stickne" River!
