116 Hannah Run—Nicholson Hollow, July 28, 1946.—Beautiful cool weather and surprises at the beginning and end made the Hannah Run— Nicholson Hollow excursion one long to be remembered by the 17 members and guests led by Dave Guy. The surprise at the beginning of the trip was a refund of $1.25 due to the fact that sufficient reservations were not received to use the bus as planned and the trip had to be made in Bill Mersch's truck. Starting at the Pinnacles Overlook on the Skyline Drive, the way led down the well-marked Hannah Run blue-blazed trail past several abandoned cabins of the "Free State" where moonshining was once rampant. Lunch was eaten at the junction with the Nicholson Hollow trail, with dessert of blackberries picked along the way and garnished with powdered sugar thoughtfully brought by the leader. After lunch the party "dunkeel" in the icy waters of Hughes River in rock-bound pools too small for swimming. The first part of the trip back was a gradual ascent beside the rushing waters of the river, followed by a somewhat steeper climb to Hughes Gap Overlook where the truck was waiting. The truck trip back was along the Skyline Drive to Front Royal, with one stop to count the seven (or was it eight) bends of the Shenandoah River reflecting the setting sun; thence to Marshall to join the apple pickers at the Keyser orchard. Then came the concluding surprise of the day, a delicious steak supper cooked by the apple pickers, dish washing, and the trip back to Washington by the combined gangs, singing all the way. The unanimous decision was that an excursion by truck is much more fun than by bus. —Dick Smith White Oak Canyon, August 18, 1946.—Seven a. m. of Sunday, August 18, found 36 hiking enthusiasts promptly assembled at P. A. T. C. Headquarters for a much anticipated trek to White Oak Canyon. We left under an overcast sky, but in spite of the threatening elements our spirits ran high as we viewed the receding ribbon of road and the quickly changing scenery and sniffed the refreshing breezes that swept past as we sped along. Suddenly a cheer went up! The sun had peeped out for a second, and before we had gone much further the menacing clouds had completely broken up. Our day was saved, and at a most opportune moment, for we had reached a spot where the scenery began to draw Oh's and Ah's. Indeed, as we ascended, the valley opened up below us and gleamed in the freshness of the morning sun. The road up to the Skyline Drive being fairly steep, we progressed in low gear, thus prolonging the view of Blue Ridge beauty. When we reached a higher level, the truck drew up to a promontory and we climbed out to take advantage of the panoramic view. We reached our destination about 11 a. m. and, led by David Guy, immediately began our hike down toward the canyon. Mrs. Guy brought up the rear and boasted a few stragglers, I fear. The trail was exceptionally good, having no steep ascents either way. The open woods were delightful and a small stream crossed our path and followed us. At 1 p. m. we arrived at the foot of a picturesque waterfall which tumbled over a rocky precipice. In this chosen spot we refreshed ourselves with lunch, after which the crowd dispersed in groups, some going on down the trail, which was too steep for most of us to look forward to the return climb; some went swimming or paddling and some just lay around on the rocks and watched the splashing waterfall. At 3:30 we retraced our steps and arrived back at the truck by 5 p. m. By then a heavy fog had begun to come over the mountain and intermittently obscured the view. Dinner at the Coffee Shoppe in Warrenton provided the perfect —Blanche Shaw •'J !■?'■*
