This is a first, I'm trying to post from my phone 😊 - Post ok, but I'll need to download something to get pictures from my phone directly....I'm also posting a video, another first...This is just a short snapshot of the incredible views from the Skyline Drive....Beautiful!
The forecast calls for rain tomorrow so to avoid breaking camp and traveling in the rain we have decided to leave SNP a day earlier than we thought we would. It's been a great place to officially begin our adventure.
We head down the Blue Ridge Parkway without a set plan. We stop by Otter Creek Visitor Center (mile marker 63.7) to get information on campgrounds. While there we take a little walk to see a restored 1848 canal/lock on the James river (Kanawha Canal).
We decided to camp a little further down the parkway (mile marker 86), Peaks of Otter Campground ($16/night or $8 with the pass).
Here we meet two other Aline owners - we're now part of the "club". There aren't many of these campers around so seeing three in one site is a bit out of the ordinary.
Leave SNP (Loft Mountain Campsite) 11:15 am
Rte. Blue Ridge Parkway South
Arrive Otters Creek Campground at 4:00ish pm
Miles traveled 124.8
