On the next morning of our October 2021 trip, Skyline Drive in Shenandoah National Park drew us back to the ridgeline as it was above the fog enveloping the valleys to the west of the park. We drove north through the Central District of the park and stopped at nearly every overlook along the route from Swift Run Gap to Thornton Gap. The fog in the valleys west of the park was mesmerizing.
