Woodstock Tower (VA)


 
On the way home from Tibbet Knob (below), we detoured through Edinburg VA and followed the Fort Valley Road north to access a side road off a side road leading to Woodstock Tower. A very short walk led to the steel view tower and good ganders east and west. I had intended to hike up the trail from below, which would have been a 600-foot ascent in one mile, in order to claim credit for a new summit. Lamentably, we missed the trail and ended up parking at the top, leaving us a gain of maybe twenty feet. So, I'd better not count that one, although I may have to if I come up short in early 2014, the deadline by which I hope to conquer my sixty new summits.
