Big Schloss


Lately it seems I am less averse to driving than I had been in the last several years so I decided to drive an hour and 40 minutes to hike the Big Schloss out in George Washington National Forest.  I really like ridge line hikes since you usually get a nice view.  It's a bit tough though when it's warm since there isn't as much shade, if any, at the top.  Once at Big Schloss though, the views were great.  I didn't get up to the platform for the 360 view though since getting there was a bit dodgy and I didn't want to risk Millie slipping down off the edge somewhere.  Lots of little flies at the top too, which kinda ruined it.  The view was definitely worth the hike though.  I saw a bit of fall colors already in the mountains.  Looking forward to more.
