I enjoyed hiking in the GWNF for 12.5 miles long with an elevation gain of 2,484 ft on a sunny yet cool spring day. The rocky Big Schloss peak provides a beautiful view of the surrounding valley. Thanks to hiker leader Karen sharing delicious homemade cookies and fellow hiker Tam generously treating me a hot cocoa.

Gene's 10th Annual Hangover Hike

I took Gene's 10th Annual Hangover Hike - Buzzard Rock to kick start 2019. I remember I first started hiking in DC area was back in 2001 and I haven’t seen Gene and Joanna more than 12 years! Nice to see them happy and healthy after so many years! It was an unusually warm winter day, and I was sleepy in the morning from the new year eve party.
