PER CURIAM: This case is an appeal from summary judgment in favor of the defendant-appellee. The district court held that West Virginia's recreational use statute, W.Va. Code Ann. § 19-25-2 (1993), in conjunction with the Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2671 et seq., shields the United States from liability under the facts of the case. For the reasons stated by the district court, the judg- ment is in all respects affirmed.

AFFIRMED
