About this listen
Recorded below the old fire tower at Millers Head on a route in Shenandoah National Park that I am calling the SNP Turducken Loop. Just like the Louisiana Cajun dish, the route combines three of Shenandoah's classic hikes. White Oak/Cedar Run, Millers Head, and Hawksbill. You get miles of waterfalls, the best scenic overlook, and the highest summit in the park. As a side dish you even get a little fire road walk, and a nice stretch of the Appalachian Trail. It was a long hike, and this 20 minute break/meditation was a nice rest in the sun to reset before the final ascent up to the summit of Hawksbill.
Millers Head has one of the most spectacular overlooks, it being an old fire tower. It looks down over the town of Ida, just south of Luray. In the recording you can hear cars and trucks echoing up from town in addition to planes and there were cows, but they did not pick up well in the recording. A woodpecker was hammering away to the right of me during the recording as well as several Juncos flitting about.
