Mount Rogers, VA Trailhead video

I am guessing everyone runs into it, but fog just plain sucks! This is my 8th highpoint climbed, and "view" at the start was pretty lame. If you watch the video, it covers:

Reminder on what we are doing
View of the trailhead

Some random trivia, and...

Try hiking this in the dark with no flash lights and wild ponies running into you.

LOL! I was just about to the top when I saw something moving around. I was a little nervous because I didn't know what it was. Then I was like, WTF? Wild Ponies?!?

Suddenly the 9 year old girl within was telling me to try and feed them and chase them aound. I was wondering how many other people ran into them. At least one more then.

Dude, I climbed that last Oct. and there were at least 30 of them. My friend tried jumping on one and it dominated him tough. Got bit and kicked! Good times high pointing is!
