Don’t be an Old Hag, come hike Old Rag

OVERVIEW

What’s up fine people. Come hike with us. Old Rag is an awesome hike full of rock scrambling and amazing views and what better way to start Spring than with an exciting trip to Shenandoah? The plan is as follows:

7AM: Meet at Student Activities Building Parking lot
8:30AM: Begin Hike
~11 arrive at top and have lunch and enjoy views
~3 get back to car
4-5pm dropoff back at Student Activities

Timing may vary based on our pace but this should be a good estimate. It is a 9 mile loop with around 3000 feet of elevation gain and some pretty technical parts so it will be tough but awesome.

WHAT TO BRING:

Lots of water / water filter for streams if you’re into that kind of thing
Lunch + snackies
Good hiking clothes (it will be around 45 degrees and cloudy when we start but quickly go up to 60)
Even more water (hydrate or diedrate)
Shoes with good traction for the rocks
Sunscreen if needed

We reserved 6 permits for the hike already, so don’t worry about that. You can just pay us back the $2 over venmo. If we get someone with a park pass the total cost will be $2, but if we have to buy one it will be $7 per person.

We will need a pass for Shenandoah, so first person with a national parks pass or Shenandoah specific one will get priority off the waitlist.
