I had planned to join tom tom's Uwharrie hang this weekend but weather/rain forced a change of plans. Since family obligations required me to miss the Grayson Winter Hang that Hickery and slowhike sponsor, I decided to drive up to Troutdale VA to tackle the Mt Roger/Grayson Highlands ~21 mile loop via the Fox Creek Trailhead of VA 603. Got up there about 3pm on Friday and got on the Appalachian Trail headed south towards Wise Shelter where I planned to camp for the night. There's some good hanging spots on the federal land just before crossing the creek to enter that state park. I did about 7 miles on Friday and finished with a bit more than 14 miles on Saturday. I would have liked to stay and extra night for the forecasted snow, but my car isn't good in bad weather so I condensed the trip to 24 hours. This area has been covered a lot on various trip reports, so just posting some photos from my loop. Hope you enjoy.
