Why This Blog:

I live in the Shenandoah Valley between two large tracts of beautiful National Forests and some pristine wilderness areas. All you have to do is look to the east and west of Harrisonburg and the valley rushes upwards into stunning mountains that contain some of the most beautiful areas on the east coast. As I drive to work I turn for a short while on to route 33 the road winds its way up and over these beautiful mountains, and everyday I think man Albert its about time you go out there and experienced the beautiful majesty of this special area that God created. So now I am. I went to the local outfitter (as sweet little store called Wilderness Voyagers) and bought a map of the National Forest and now I am setting out to Hike as many of the trails as I can and find all of the best views and pristine camping spots that my legs will carry me to. As I hike these areas I want to share my trail experiences with you. This blog will be part trail review, part story telling, part devotional, and part gear review. Who knows maybe you will even read about a trail that you can’t wait to get out and hike for your self; I hope and pray that is the case!!
