90 Second Escape: Crabtree Falls in Virginia
Crabtree Falls, in the George Washington National Forest, drops a little over 1,200 feet in five major cascades, making it the biggest waterfall in the eastern United States. A well-designed trail supplemented with observation decks along the way make the 1.7-mile walk well worth the effort.
Tallest Waterfall East of The Mississippi
Video showcasing Crabtree Falls in Montebello Va. It is a series of cascading falls, so instead of one large vertical drop it is made up of several smaller drops. The falls at the top though are around 400ft. from top to bottom.

Virginia Graduation Vacation | Blue Ridge Parkway
I managed to grab a few moments from Bethany's graduation at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia, as well as several great landscapes from the Blue Ridge Parkway! We visited Raven's Roost Overlook (Raven's Rock Overlook), Sharp Top Mountain, Humpback Rocks, and Crabtree Falls.
We spent a few nights in Afton / Crozet, and then a few nights in D.C. that I did not film much of.

Driving Through Blue Ridge Mountains Virginia
This is a cool but scary stretch of road on Interstate 77 South in Virginia. It's a 7 mile stretch that climbs into the Blue Ridge Mountains. When driving and looking into the valley, it's so high you feel like you're in the clouds. It's quite a view! I took this video on Thanksgiving Day while driving from Pennsylvania to North Carolina for a visit with my brother.

Hiking Humpback Rocks on the Virginia Blue Ridge Parkway
This is a short (about two miles round trip) hike up a very steep trail on Humpback Mountain at Mile Marker 6 on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Humpback Rocks are right along the line between Nelson and Augusta Counties in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. The easiest access is via the Blue Ridge Parkway. The trail up the slope of the mountain is very interesting, with numerous rock features along the way. Once arriving at Humpback Rocks, you can get stunning views of the surrounding area. The view is nearly 360 degrees, blocked only by the summit of Humpack Mountain just to the south of the rocks. Great views of the Rockfish Valley, the City of Waynesboro, the Shenandoah Valley, Torry Ridge, Kelly Mountain, the Allegheny Highlands, and more. This is a busy hike, I was there on a very windy late weekday afternoon and there were several other hikers on the trail. This spot is probably packed and over crowded on a weekend. Unfortunately there is a lot of trash and graffiti at the rocks. Please practice Leave No Trace principles when hiking in any natural area. Thanks for watching. Please leave a comment and be sure to thumbs up the video.

Blue Ridge Mountains Waterfall Extravaganza Hike
My second attempt to go out and find Shining Rock. Solo this time, pours rain as soon as the hike begins, end up missing my turn for the original destination, realize mistake when trail ends, sadness ensues, rain stops, take the trail back completely soaked, get surrounded by an abundance of the most beautiful waterfall collection in my life.
Beautiful Falling Spring Falls, Virginia
Falling Spring Falls is a breathtaking 80' waterfall. The scenic waterfall is located on Route 220 in Alleghany County, just five miles north of Covington, Virginia. Near by there are few swimming holes, perfect for summer cool off, while visiting this waterfall.
Thomas Jefferson described the Falling Spring Falls as a remarkable cascade...falling over a rock about 200 feet to the valley below. One of the largest falls in Virginia, it cascades from an overhanging ledge, and is easily visible from the roadway.
