Hello!
My girlfriend and I are planning a three day backpacking trip and are gathering information about potential routes and sites. Here's the criteria, help us make it an awesome weekend!
- She lives in NYC, I live in Richmond, VA. We want to meet somewhere in the middle so we can spend more time together on trail.
- We want somewhere with a mountaintop or big destination along the route.
- Looking for wilderness trails that are not heavily populated
- Stays above freezing at night in October/early November
- Nothing crazy technical - girlfriend is petite and I will be carrying all the weight
Ideas in VA:
- Old Ragg in Shenandoah with a day hike on one of the loop trails along Skyline Drive. Any suggestions for loop trails or other day hikes in the area?
- Crabtree Falls and Spy Rock.
What other ideas in VA, WV, MD, PA, or NJ do you suggest?
Cheers!
Craig
