| Stu Brandel | Snowy and Windy  Date Climbed: Nov 8, 2012 | |
| The snow and ice and high winds made this little scramble a bit more intimidating than I thought it would be. | |

| Those were some truly nice Virginia rocks. It was easier than anticipated, but still a class A east coast mountain. Next time will bring shoes and rope. | |

| ssfitz | Nice hike Date Climbed: Jun 1, 2006 | |
| One of the many nice trails in SNP. Can get very crowded on a nice day though. I have hiked this trail numerous times | |

| vanman798 | Easy | |
| Wish I could recall the exact date. I just remember I was alone and it seems like the leaves were off the trees. Must have been fall 2003 or 2004, but I can't say with certainty. Anyway it's a very easy and short little hike, but with cool rocks. | |

| It rained really hard on October 27th, and it was very windy the next day. While scrambling over the rocks, a particularly strong gust of wind ripped the baseball cap right off my head and sent it off a cliff! On the way back, I saw a black bear and her two cubs climbing up a tree. | |

| AirborneBuff | New Years Eve Day Date Climbed: Dec 31, 2006 | |
| First hike of six for the day and one of my favorites. Fun route over the boulders and peaceful on the AT. Not a single person at the trailhead or the trail. | |

| Mark Doiron | Communion on Bear Fence Mountain Date Climbed: Jun 12, 2004 | |
| Curtis (my son) and I were visiting Shenandoah and climbed to the top of Bearfence Mountain. There we ran into a Episcopalian Men's Group that had the annual rite of celebrating communion on top of the mountain every year. They invited us to join in, which we did. | |

| An absolutely perfect day for a hike. I took the day off of work and came up to Shenandoah just because I felt like it. The views on Bearfence were great and the scramble was lots of fun. First time I'd done this hike in a few years. | |
