    VA SNP backpacking trip central section June 14-16

    I have June 14-16 to do a couple of nights in SNP. This would be a backpacking trip not a car camping trip. I have not picked a trail as of yet but will be along water most of the hike. So fishing, waterfalls, maybe even some swimming holes to cool off if its hot I'm brining my fly rod so i may be taking a few fishing stops along the trail. We would meet at the HYW 33 entrance of the park late morning on Friday. If there is any interest let me know, as of the moment I'm flexible and open to any input.

    I'm thinking of doing this trip . Only thing is I have got a birthday party that Sunday for my twins so I would have to be out early. what kind of miles you thinking?
    It's not the fall im scared of, it's the sudden stop at the end!!!

    Hey Visionary lion, like I said I'm flexible. We can get an early start on Sunday no problem. I know the park very well so no extra miles on the last day. You know what I'm talking about.

    I'd like to do this. I need to get a good pack but I'm going to make a run to REI this weekend so hopefully I'll have that out of the way.

    So if I can get my crap together, take a day off and get permission from my pregnant wife count me in.
