Well after recently graduating I have 3 weeks of free do anything time. I want to get my first multiple night/multiple site hike done.
My plan is to do the VA Triple Crown: Dragon's Tooth > McAfee's Knob > Tinker Cliffs. From what I've read it would be ~25 miles. I plan on doing one night at each peak to see both sunrise and sunset at each peak. I haven't looked into the finer details yet but I intend to plan everything out tomorrow. My plan is to start the hike on either Tuesday(5/19) or Wednesday(5/20). However if there are other people interested maybe I'll do it starting Friday(5/21).
Two questions that come to mind right off the bat:
- Which direction would be best if it matters at all.
DT > MK > TC
or
TC > MK >DT- Where is the best place to leave my car?
Park at the beginning and get a ride/hitchhike/shuttle back to my car.
or
Park at the end and have someone give me a ride/hitchhike/shuttle to the beginning of the hike.
Any input or past experience with doing this hike would be great. Thanks in advance!
