Old Rag


Today Rachel and I went hiking on a hiking trail in the Shenandoah called Old Rag. This hiking trail is near Skyline drive where I went with Linds and co a few weeks ago. This particular hike was quite challenging, but ultimately rewarding.

The hike itself is about 7.5 miles and starts at the bottom of the mountain... and then hikes up to the peak. So there is a pretty steep incline at the beginning that doesn't really let up till you reach the top. But the true fun part of this trail is the rock scrambling. Similar to the billy goat trail, there is a large section where you are jumping on and climbing on rocks. Though in comparison this trail is significantly more challenging than even that. But that also means it was more fun lol.

Anyways, I posted some of the pictures from the hike below in a slide show. No one seemed to object to the slide show format last time, so hopefully you all like it again.
