With my wife gone to Ireland for nearly two weeks, I decided to head out to VA and re-hike the 108 miles on Shenandoah National Park (Rock Fish Gap to Front Royal (which is actually 4 miles past the end of 104 mile SNP)). I had originally considered doing the Benton MacKaye Trail this summer, but I knew it would have be broken up instead of 3 weeks straight, so instead I did the Foothills Trail and this instead. I had fond memories of the SNP with the waysides, showers, views, well maintained and relatively mild trail, so I thought this would be fun to do this again. Also interesting to be part of the bubble for a week.
The road to glory cannot be followed with much baggage.
