Rocky Top Shenandoah Hike
20 mile hike in central Shenandoah near Skyline Drive. Got in at 11PM on Friday night and hiked 3 hours with headlamps before setting up camp. Hiked the remaining 17 the next day through some of the thickest fog I've ever seen.
Highlights include rock fields, a few rivers, baby deer trying to figure out how to hop over walls, burned out mountain slopes, and a portion of the Appalachian Trail. Finished all of it in 20 hours total including camping.
