Published: July 6, 2021, 11 a.m.

Three of the most iconic spots on the Appalachian Trail in Virginia are Dragon’s Tooth, Tinker Cliffs and McAfee Knob. And combined with three trails in the North Mountain trail system they can be done in a loop of about 35 miles. In today's episode, we follow 10 backpackers on a four-day, three-night trip that covers these geologic icons and some pretty phenomenal scenery in between.
