Dragons Tooth Trail Head, Appalachian National Scenic Trail, Catawba, VA, USA
Hello! I love Halloween. I also love hiking. I have also never hiked Dragon’s Tooth. So I am combining all of the above.
Dragon’s Tooth is said to be pretty rocky and there are some areas with rock scrambles, so I might not recommend if you have a crippling fear of heights. It is rated as hard, but with the power of will and some experience hiking, I think anyone should be able to do this hike. If you want more details, check it out here:

**DRIVERS WANTED**
I would love to have more people come than the four I can fit in my car, so drivers get priority off the waitlist. That being said, please don’t sign up as a driver if you don’t think you can commit to driving!
