Dovecote
Riprap Hollow, Shenandoah Park
Let’s try this one again:
Guess hoo just bought an SNP pass and is scheming on a reimbursement so she can buy groceries.
Hint: it’s me
We’ll head out of Charlottesville around 6:30am for Riprap Hollow–deemed “one of the best circuit hikes in the Southern SNP”– on Tuesday morning as the drive is about an hour and a half. The hike should take 4-5 hours, which puts us back in Cville around 3pm.
This is a relatively strenuous 10mile hike, and my goal is to keep a decent pace throughout, although obviously we will be out in August humidity and will stop for water breaks as needed. There’s also a swimming hole if people are interested.
–Driver’s needed, ODC reimburses gas+50% tip!!–
You will need:
2L water
Lunch+snacks
bathing suit/something you wouldn’t mind getting wet if we stop to swim
