Big Schloss Hike

This was such a cool hike near Woodstock,VA.  The hike itself wasn't too difficult, but the views were pretty exceptional!  The first part of the hike had me out of breath, but before too long, you end up on a ridge line and the hike turns into more of a very scenic stroll.  We saw several other groups while we were there, so it certainly wasn't an isolated feeling hike, but there weren't even close to the crowds that you would see at a hike like Old Rag.  We used these directions.  Basically, from the coordinates (38.92404, -78.68949), take the orange blazed trail from right near campsite #9.
