WHY CONSUME WHEN YOU CAN CREATE?

Rocky Top Shenandoah Hike

April 10th, 2011 travel

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.
