Dolly Sods (West Virginia)




My dad entered that last photo in some photo contest and I took like second place or something and got a sweet Garmin backpacking GPS to use on future endeavors.
Also we got snowed out on the first night of our trip. Was supposed to drop to high 40s at night, ended up in the low 30s by morning, with like 70mph winds. Nothing unmanageable, but nobody was packed for it. Bummer. Need to get back there. Super cool vegetation.

Spruce Knob / Seneca Rocks (West Virginia)



Part of this trail includes a literal loving plane crash





Obviously my bullshit hikes in PA / WV don't come close to poo poo in the southwest but there you go

I have a lot of photos of the plane crash but most of them have my friends in them so I'd rather not post it but I think we identified it after the trip as an early 70s Cessna 402? I think?

There was a jar full of notes of grieving and stuff. It was pretty cool. Maybe 50 feet off the trail.

Big Schloss (VA/WV)




Best loving campsite I've ever seen, but not nearly enough room for my crew of 7
