Falls Ridge / North Mountain, GWNF, VA/WV

Photos by Michael Juskelis, 2006/06/17.

A view west shortly after gaining the ridge.

A view of Massanutten Mt during our lunch break. Signal Knob is to the far left.

A giant ant hill (still active).

Getting "psyched" for the steep pipeline descent.

We were way up there 30 minutes ago!

Gray Beardtongue (Penstemon canescens) were in thick clusters along a gravel road we used as a connector.

Fly Poison (Amianthium muscaetoxicum) literally edged the ridge-top trail.

Clasping Venus' Looking Glass (Specularia perfoliata).
