I kick myself that I did not take pictures of my trap line and catches when I first started out as a kid back in the 60s/70s. Anyone have some they would like to share/ post?

Paul,
Is that the Nebo outside of Saltville, VA ? That’s the only Nebo I know of, if so its very close to me.

We lived there for two years when dad worked for VA Dept of Health trapping foxes for rabies control. From there we moved to Culpeper. Here's the house - it's still there.
