Memorial Day Weekend – Skyline Drive (Thorton Gap to Crescent Rock)
We spent the Memorial Day weekend in Virginia. On Saturday we drove the entire length of Skyline Drive (105 miles), from Front Royal to Rockfish Gap. In order to better showcase the photographs that I took along Skyline Drive, I have divided the drive into five areas:
Front Royal to Pass Mountain Overlook
Thornton Gap to Crescent Rock
Hawksbill Gap to Point Overlook
Bearfence to Simmons Gap
Loft Mountain Overlook to Rockfish Gap
This blog post highlights the portion of the drive identified as Thornton Gap to Crescent Rock.

These green, hazy mountain photos are wonderful, Linda. I also like the tunnel ones. The B & W really sets a mood! Looks like you had a good trip.
What a gorgeous place! Wow!
Beautiful scenery and love the blk and wh.pic. Love the stone man too; reminds me of the Sleeping giant in Hawaii.
