Humpback Rock, Virginia, USA
Howdy
I have a 930 am on Thursday but I like to live life on the wild side so let’s do a Humpback sunrise. Also, assuming nothing crazy happens, we’ll be back well before then (as much as I’d like to be late for my ENWR). For those who haven’t done Humpback, it’s wicked short (under a mile to the top) and has a great sunrise view. This hike will be pretty chill, but it is fairly steep so make sure you’re up for that.
