Leaf Peeping at Shenandoah: Photos (Part Two)

On October 18, 2006, I visited Shenandoah National Park and hiked the Whiteoak Canyon trail. This is the second set of photos I took along the trail. (Click here to view the first set.)

Scott,
Nice pictures. I live near the Shenandoah Park. Can see the mountains from the back yard. The colors were beautiful this weekend, at their peak I would say. One of the more colorful years we have had for a while. Next weekend will probably it for this year.
That is a really fun hike. Its about a 7.5 mile circuit up one canyon and down another. I was up there in early October and had a blast. It looks like Scott got better color than I saw though. -Tim
I don't hike like I use to, but this was one of my favorites because of the water falls. I did Old Rag earlier this year and although it was crowded as usual, it was a blast climbing over, under and through the rocks.
