Pete and I went on vacation 2 weeks ago to do the Virginia Creeper rails to trails line and take two impressive hikes, Grayson Highlands and Grandfather Mountain. We needed a vacation from our vacation after we were done!
Day 1: Virginia Creeper Biking from Abington, VA to Damascus, VA - 16 miles
An engine that ran the Virginia Creeper rail line
Moo cow claiming the trail
Always scouting the rapids for future whitewater adventures
Day 2: Grayson Highlands Hike to Mount Rogers - 9 miles
Overlooking the valley
USGS marker at the top of Mount Rogers, highest point in VA at 5,729 feet
We saw many wild ponies along the trail
Day 3: Virginia Creeper Biking from Whitetop, VA to Damascus, VA (and to NC border) - 17 miles
Another potential whitewater run
Famous Green Cove station from O. Winston Link's photograph
Tressel in NC
Day 4: Grandfather Mountain Hike - 7 very strenuous miles
No carabiners to hold us in this time!
