The beginning of our road trip during the fall. We entered the Shenandoah NP at the North Entrance Station under cloudy skies. The Skyline Drive was our goal thru this park which is 105 miles and will connect us to the Blue Ridge Parkway. Our first night was very rainy and windy. The park has several campgrounds and are very well kept with nice showers. We had to move around some to find cell service to make it through the evening of rain. When we have no connections we rely on cell service so we can work and play indoors.
A very cool outcropping of rocks, If I was younger I would have tried to get to the top
At the same stop there was a small waterfall and a portion of tracks that have been refurbished and you can get a sense of long ago days.
Waterfalls are always my go to. I will hike miles just to see running water. Most of the falls on this trip were pretty close to the roads. This one was after a nice little uphill trek. There was plenty of water to fill the streams and falls as it has rained most days that we were in Shenandoah NP.
Our last night was very rainy so we finished the drive and found our way to a local town with Walmart and Starbucks and spent the afternoon and evening with plenty of internet. It was very windy and rainy.
