Chimney Hollow Trail - February 14, 2015

submitted by Barbara Martin   

     We had a chilly, but fun and beautiful hike on Chimney Hollow Trail.  The hike was lead by Barbara Martin who was joined by Susanna Williams, John Brandt, Brian Muszynski, Kelly Guch, Kirsten Elowsky and Michael Johnson.  Kelly joined us from Madison, Virginia while Michael and Kirsten traveled from Loudoun County.  We walked along an ice frosted stream then climbed to beautiful views and had lunch looking out towards the Alleghenies plus the ridge where Shenandoah Mountain Trail goes.  Many folks on the hike had not been to this area before and were impressed by the beauty of it all leading to a discussion of future hikes in the area.  We were also joined by a frisky 9 year old German Shepherd named Elsa, who entertained herself by chasing sticks and trying to mooch our lunches from us.  Thanks to Brian for clearing away much of the blow down in the trail.  A great deal of chocolate chip cookies were devoured and a good time had by all.
