Shenandoah National Park VA


Oct 22, 23, 2012 Mon – Tue
I spent the last two days exploring Skyline Drive in the Shenandoah National Park VA. Skyline Drive follows the crest of the Blue Ridge Mountains for 105 miles. At its southern end it joins the Blue Ridge Parkway, which stretches 469 miles to Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
I spent so much time in Vermont and New Hampshire by the time I arrived in VA the leaves were past peak. There was still some color, but all of the oaks were already shedding their now brown leaves. Here are some views from along the ridge.
