Peaks of Otter Lodge

The day after the hike to the summit Sharp Top. Great sense of accomplishment...as well as tiredness.

I film the inside of our room at the Peaks of Otter as well as the top of Sharp Top. I mention the duration of our hike: around 4.5 hours total.

Near Roanoke, VA. Filming the bridge and some grass.

Roanoke River Bridge

Hiking the Loop Trail.

Meadows of Dan!
