About
Lewis Falls should be beautiful after our recent rain. We will meet at 8:30 at Milam Gap (mile 52.4 on Skyline Drive in Shenandoah National Park) and begin by following the Appalachian Trail. The AT will head towards Big Meadows Campground, when we reach the Lewis Spring Falls Trail near the campground, we’ll turn left. This will loop back towards the AT and pass Lewis Spring Falls. After checking out the waterfall and having a quick snack, we will loop back to the AT. Here is the AllTrails description that I plagiarized. https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/virginia/milam-gap-and-lewis-falls-loop A few notes: * There is a $30 fee to enter Shenandoah National Park. * Leashed dogs are welcome. * The sun and ticks are out. Please lather and spray. * I am bossy about water. * I don't hike in the rain and will cancel the day before if the weather is nasty. * If you can’t make it, please don’t cancel at the last minute.
