Hi all, I'm new to the forum. I ran into a couple of members at Peter's Mill Run this past weekend who directed me to this forum, and I'd like to try and organize a trip up to Flagpole Knob in the next couple of weeks. Who's in?
When:
October 10-11, 2020
NOVA Meeting Place:
Super Target
13301 Gateway Center Dr
Gainesville, VA 20155
Time: 9:45am - We're rolling out by 10:00am
Secondary Meeting Place:
Sheetz
798 E Market St
Harrisonburg, VA 22801
Time: 11:30am
What:
Flagpole Knob - Heading up Switzer Lake, coming down Forest Road 85A.
Camping - Sites are first come first serve, so no set camp spot.
Who's Invited:
I was getting some input from a friend and he would like to come.... He owns a jeep though. So initially I wanted this to be an Xterra/Frontier only trip, but I'm down to invite anyone.
*Our group size dictates possible camp sites if we want to remain together.
_____________________________________________________________
Once there, we'll get up near the top somewhere and set up camp, then relax and have dinner, talk, play music, etc., then in the morning, we pack up and head out through a different trail.
Feel free to bring:
- your dogs (must be kid and dog friendly)
- your kids (must be dog and kid friendly lol)
- your guitar, or other instrument (no kazoos please)
- anything else you would like
Expect temps to be at or below freezing, so pack warm and bring extra blankets/heater. I don't plan to camp at the clearing at the top because the wind can be murder at night.
Trails: I'd like to go up Switzer Lake and leave through Forest Road 85a, but I'm open to options. I'd like to go check out Union Springs once we're all set up or in the morning if anyone is interested, but I'd like to make it home also and I'm running 33" tires with no lift- not sure about the rest of you.
