Now that Spring Break is over it’s time to revisit our last trip before break. A group of Mason students headed out to the Massanutten Range to hike to the top of Duncan Knob. Spectacular views from the scree field on the Knob were their reward for the 10 mile round trip hike.

The group as the snow starts to fly
On the Saturday of Presidents’ Weekend a group of Mason students went for a hike on the Appalachian Trail in Shenandoah National Park. The plan was to do a roughly ten mile hike between Hawksbill, the park’s highest point, and Stony Man Mountain. The trip had to be cut short due to an incoming snowstorm. Upon arriving at the park the group was informed that the road would be closing at noon, cutting their hike short by several hours. The group made the most of their shortened time by hiking to the summit of Hawksbill before exiting the park and making a side trip to Shenandoah River Park.

This past Saturday nine members of the Mason Nation braved the rain to enjoy a lovely, though wet, hike on the Billy Goat Trail along the Potomac. The rain couldn’t keep them from enjoying the beauty that the Mather Gorge has to offer.
