A UVA vacation day known as "Spring Break Day" was the reason 5 hikers headed out to Shenandoah National Park to hike the Big Portal/Brown Mtn Loop on Friday, March 10th. Hikers included Iva Gillet, Jeanne Siler, Lisa Lampe, John Brandt, and hike leader Jeff Monroe, along with three dogs. The hike started out in sleet on the Skyline Drive, but the hikers descended into better conditions only to find a stiff wind on the return climb. The hikers enjoyed looking at the remaining remnants of last Spring's fire, along with a good workout. Congrats to Jeanne for completing her longest hike ever!
