I have been living in N. Virginia going on four years now and have finally made it to Great Falls Park. It's something I have always wanted to do, but it never ends up happening. It was a perfect fall sunny day on Sunday and that made it even better. The trails we did were pretty much easy ones, but there was some moderate adventure involved. At one point I forged a river like in the the people in the Oregon Trail game. I didn't some close to death, but I did get a wet foot. The forging part is a slight exaggeration. Great Falls is pretty close to our house so I would like to go there more often, especially during different seasons to see what it looks like. If you live in N. Virginia I highly recommend this as a weekend activity. Next time I will bring water and snacks and maybe a book.
