Final Remarks and Favorite Pictures (Part 2)


One of the less glamorous parts of hiking areas where nobody has been for a week or two: spider webs. I'm pretty sure I got caught in several hundred webs throughout the entire hike. Pretty, but also pretty hard to get out of a beard.



Creepy walking through mist... but kind of fun in a sick sorta way.



Literally and figuratively walking in the clouds at that point :-)



Welcome to Shenandoah National Park! Perfect timing, as the whole hike was designed to arrive at the peak of fall colors in the one spot so famous for it!

Final Remarks and Favorite Pictures (Part 3)


One very nice thing about the Shenandoah National Park is the excellent trail markers. Not very often do you find stone/metal markers... it signaled the beginning of my return to society.



Leaves. Lots of em.



Another gorgeous view in the SNP.


One of my last overlooks before being picked up!
