A typical autumn weekend when I decided to explore some nature. This time I picked two famous routes along Appalachian Trail in Northern Virginia, Buzzard Hill and Raven Rocks.<\/p>\n

On my way to the Appalachian trails I stopped by Leesburg Outlets for some shopping, so by the time I arrived at Buzzard Hill trailhead it was 12:50. The last 1.5 miles to Buzzard Hill trailhead on Virginia Route 605 was on gravel, and the last 5 meters or so to the parking lot was some steep incline with loose gravel, which caused more trouble to my sporty coupe than I’d like.<\/p>\n

By the way, it seemed that parking at the trailhead wasn’t as bad as some online posts had described. With what looked like a newly cleared ramp for parking, there should be at least a dozen parking spots at the site.<\/p>\n

And here’s GPS tracking.
