    Shenandoah National Park

    I'm going to be spending a week in Shenandoah National Park in August. I have never been there and would love any recommendations for day hikes. I'll be staying in a cabin right in the park and I believe I'll have access to most trails. This being one of the few national parks that allow dogs...

    Guns on the trail

    After reading about the misadventure of the young man on Mt. Adams and the following story several days later about a hiker finding the gun that had been lost in the fall - I started wondering how many hikers actually carry a firearm while hiking. A couple of years ago I ran into a man on Mt...

    Arethusa Falls - Frankenstein Cliff

    Hiking into the falls was well packed and easy going with light traction. The Cliff trail over to the cliff has not been traveled lately about 3 inches of powder but trail is easy to follow. Wish I hadn't left my snowshoes in the car! No sign of any recent visitors to the cliffs. Trail down...

    Road closures

    Zealand and Gale River are now closed. Went up hiking Monday and spent the night at Zealand Hut - met the Ranger in the parking lot this morning. The Ranger said there was some nasty weather coming in tonight. Stopped in on my way home to check out Gale River - both roads are gated.

    Bondcliff trail campsite

    Can anyone give me a general idea of where the campsite is on the Bondcliff trail. I'd like to set up my tent then continue on to Bondcliff and Mt. Bond. I can't remember seeing any campsites the last time I was on this trail. Do I need to worry about leaving things - like sleeping bag and...

    Flat Mountain pond

    Decided on Tuesday to hike up to Flat Mountain pond to spend the night at the shelter. Trails are in good condition, brook crossings are easy. A nice hike to a beautiful place. The shelter sits just above the brook so you get to fall asleep listening to the best music. Sat at the pond at...

    Wild River Wilderness

    I am thinking of doing several days in the Wild River area. I know about the Imp shelter and the Perkins shelter - does anyone know if there are any campsites along the Black Angel Trail? Any suggestions on what might be a good three day backpack in the area.
