WE DO OUR BEST TO SHOW YOU WHAT A VAN CAMPING EXPERIENCE IS REALLY LIKE FOR US... THE SOUNDS, THE SMELLS, THE WORRY AND STRESS, AND THE REWARDS FOR TAKING A RISK.

2 SENIORS HIKE TO THE SUMMIT OF MOUNT ROGERS IN VIRGINIA AND WE'LL NEVER BE THE SAME! Come along with us as we share this entire experience. Best word to describe this trip... PERFECT! Perfect weather, perfect timing, perfect camping at Grayson Highlands, perfect hike and most of all... a perfect experience in the high mountains of Virginia as we hike from Grayson Highlands State Park to the highest peak in VA, Mount Rogers along the Appalachian Trail.

We were not sure we could make it to the top and once there we were not sure we'd have enough time to make it back down the mountain but we are glad we did it.
