The weather is cooling off and it's time to head to mountains for a hike! We will be summitting Elliot Knob, about a 90 minute drive from our meeting location.

This is an 8.3 mile out and back hike and is considered DIFFICULT. For the first three miles, we'll gradually ascend through a forest before coming out to the service road for the last mile. This part is very steep, but making it to the top is rewarded with a (typically) open watch tower with 360 degree views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Shenandoah Valley.

We are going to meet at Hickory Haven Park and Ride and hope to figure out a carpooling situation.
