Rocksylvania
The "Pennsylvania Rocks" of the Appalachian Trail are legendary. They come in every size and shape and simply can't be avoided.
Hiking Roots
No stronger sense of place shaped my life and my future than the setting of my childhood home. On our recent trip to the ALDHA Gathering, I walked the Appalachian Trail of my youth to seek out memories.
Fall Color on Skyline Drive
Enjoy the glorious colors of autumn leaves along Skyline Drive in Shenandoah National Park in October. The 105-mile historic parkway offers unparalleled vistas.
