Cedar Run and Whiteoak Canyon – Hiking and Water Sliding

OVERVIEW

What’s poppin

Come join me in the great adventure that is Cedar Run and Whiteoak Canyon. This trail has some pretty great waterfalls, swimming holes and one waterfall you can – wait for it – slide down. The hike is about 9 miles long with ~2500 ft elevation gain, we’ll be going at a moderate to fastish pace since we want to have time to enjoy the swimming holes and the water slide. We’ll hike down to White oak canyon from Skyline Drive, stop at a swimming hole or two, continue down the trail, and hop onto the Cedar run trail to send the water slide and hike back up. We’ll stop to eat lunch at some point.
