shenandoah national park

This summer we've taken several day trips to Shenandoah, picking hikes from our PATC guidebook.

hazel mountain, october

A 6-mile circuit, up Pine Hill Trail and Hazel Mountain Trail, then down Sam's Run (briefly) and Broad Hollow.
off route 681 broad hollow creek and trail mushroom

old rag, september

Old Rag is a 7-mile circuit with a difficult rock scramble at the summit.



sugarloaf circuit, june

We did the 9-mile Sugarloaf circuit (#3 in your Potomac Appalachian Trail Club guide). We started on the AT near milepost 21 and Hogback Overlook; from there we took the Sugarloaf Trail, Keyser Run fire road, Pole Bridge Link Trail, and Piney Branch Trail. We saw ferns; mountain laurel, just past peak; Hogback Crest; "ghost trees" that were probably killed in the latest forest fire; and a radio tower. Twice we saw bear scat on the trail but -- unlike last time -- we saw no bears.
