2021 Year in Review

This has been a terrific year! We spent time with family, got a new dog, and traveled around the mid-Atlantic region.

The Chickery's 2021 year in review

Grandkids Are the BEST!

Grandkids are the best!

The highlight of 2021 was watching our grandson Jax grow! He was born December 14, 2020 so there were so many milestones this year. I was so fortunate to be able to watch him a few days a week while his parents worked and loved every minute of it. He also spent plenty of time at our house and as you’ll see below camping with us too.

Family Time

Since I was watching Jax, we didn’t venture far this year. Luckily, our middle son, Justin came out to visit us this summer. He and our youngest son, Donovan will be here for Christmas. It will be the first time we’ve had all our boys together since Richie & Agata got married in 2018.

We enjoy family camping with our adult children

We did go on several camping trips throughout the year, mainly staying in the mid-Atlantic region. Jax went on his first camping trip with us at 3-months old. Click on the links below to see more photos and details about each trip:

Hiking

Photos of Shenandoah National Park hiking

When I wasn’t watching Jax, I spent a lot of time hiking. I joined a women’s hiking club and have hiked 631 miles so far in 2021 (Jan – Nov). Most of it was in Shenandoah National Park. I’ve even completed a few hikes with Jax on my back, but he’s getting a little heavy for me. I’m so thankful to Sean who works to support my hiking habit.

We’re excited for what’s next in 2022!

All Trails Tutorial – How to Find Great Hiking Trails & More

One of the best activities to do when you’re traveling is hiking. It’s free and great exercise. It also allows you to see and experience more of the area you are visiting. In this article, I’ll share how I use All Trails, my favorite tool for hiking that allows me to find great hiking trails, read reviews about them, and assess the difficulty to see if the trails are right for me. 

In the video tutorial below, I share my screen and show you how I use All Trails to accomplish these tasks and more. Then keep reading below to learn more details about what this app can do. 

Finding Hiking Trails 

One of the most common things hikers use All Trails for is to find great trails along their travels. If you’re somewhere new and don’t know what the best hiking trails are, All Trails gives you options with user reviews, but it does a lot more than that. You can do these searches on the app or on your computer. 

All Trails can help you find the best hiking trail for your preference, ability, and location. You can sort and filter on so many options. When you first bring the app up you have the option to search nearby or if you are planning a trip in advance, you can enter the location. For example, when I was traveling to Maine, I used the app to find trails on Monhegan Island and in Acadia National Park.

View of the All Trails app that shows all the hiking trails in an area.

If you click the filter button, you can sort by Best Match, Most Popular, or Closest. You can also choose the difficulty (easy, moderate, or hard). The problem with choosing a difficulty level here is that you don’t really know how that compares to your rating. Instead, I prefer to filter by length (in miles) and elevation gain (in feet). 

As you scroll down, you’ll see you can sort on attractions like waterfalls, beach, rails trails, or historic site. You can also filter on suitability such as dog friendly, paved, accessible, or stroller friendly. Finally, you can choose the route type including out & back, loop, or point to point. 

Be aware that you don’t have to filter on anything. You can simply choose to see the full list of hikes. However, the filters help save time if you are looking for something in particular. 

If you want to view them by location (nearby is a subjective term after all), you can see the hikes on a map. 

Assessing Hiking Trails 

Once you have a list of potential hikes, you can use All Trails to assess if it is right for you. One of the most important consideration is your hiking experience and ability. It is so important to follow these hiker safety tips to ensure you don’t get yourself into danger. 

Here’s how you assess a hike in All Trails: 

  • Click on a hike that looks interesting to you.
  • Take note of the length and elevation gain to get a general idea of the difficulty. 
  • View the full map to see if the elevation is concentrated in one area. You can also see the grade of the incline and any water crossings on the map. 
View of the All Trails Hiking Map that allows you to see the elevation gain and grade of an incline.
  • Scroll down to reviews and see what other hikers have said about the trail. Just realize that some terms like “easy” or “hard” are subjective and vary among hikers. 

Creating Your Own Custom Hiking Trails 

If you don’t see a trail that fits all your requirements, don’t despair. My favorite part of All Trails Pro is the ability to create my own custom maps. When using All Trails Pro on your computer, simply click the down arrow next to “Plan” and you’ll see a drop down menu. Choose “Create Map” and you can draw your own. Using the map, navigate to the location you want to hike at and you’ll see all the public trails. In this example, I’m looking at Shenandoah National Park. 

Just choose Draw Route and when you click on a trail, you’ll start the hiking trail map. Continue doing that along the route you want to take and it will show you the total mileage and elevation. And you can continue to edit it until it meets your needs. 

Then you name it and add notes under Description. Then save it and you’re ready to sync it to your phone. 

Navigating Using All Trails  

The first thing you will need to do if you want to navigate using All Trails is the download the trail on your phone. This will ensure that you have navigation even if you don’t have a cell signal. Here’s how you do that: 

Don’t forget to share the map of your hiking trail with someone else so they know where you will be. It’s a good idea to share your itinerary details like when you plan to arrive at the trailhead, your hiking speed, and when you plan to be finished. 

Once you reach the trailhead and are ready to start your navigation on your phone, you … As you hike you will be the blue dot moving along the trail. The dark green dot is your starting point. When you stop for breaks, you have the option of pausing or continuing to let it run. If you continue to let it run, which is what I do, when you are completed you’ll see “total time” and “moving time.” 

Tracking for Hiking Progress with All Trails 

Another feature that I really enjoy with All Trails is the ability to track my progress. Under “History,” you’ll see a tab for “Stats.” This is great because it shows mileage, elevation gain, and moving time in a graph by month. It also shows your personal bests for each category. 

Additionally, you can look at your “Activities” list and review each hike to see the average pace, mileage, and elevation individually. If you click on “Splits” you’ll see your pace for each mile. 

All of these features are great it you want to improve your time or increase your distance and mileage. 

All Trails Limitations 

One thing I’ve noticed from my experience is that the mileage listed for hikes is often shorter than the true duration. If you are looking at a hike that is already loaded, scroll down to the reviews and see if anyone has a recording of their hike. If so, click on that and you’ll see how long it really was. 

If you are drawing a custom map, take a look at the elevation gain because that is what is often not accounted for in the All Trails mileage estimate. 

Another thing to note is that many trails are crowd sourced, meaning that individuals can record and recommend a new trail. For this reason, be sure to pay attention to any no trespassing or private property signs.

Sharing is caring! Feel free to share this post on social media or share the image below to Pinterest.

Learn how to use the All Trails app to find the best hiking trails and navigate when you are on the trail. You can also create custom hiking maps and track your hiking stats.

Favorite Hikes near Washington DC

You don’t have to wander far from the beltway to enjoy some truly spectacular hikes! On a recent trip to the Washington DC area, I squeezed in five of my favorites in three days. Why so many you may ask? I was visiting from east coast of Florida where the leaves aren’t changing and there is no discernible change in elevation on any of my nature walks (I can’t bring myself to call them hikes). Don’t get me wrong, Florida has its assets. I just don’t enjoy the hiking there as much as I do in other places like northern Virginia.

Fall Hiking

Fall is my favorite season to hike. I love the crisp autumn air and the changing colors of the leaves. There are usually less crowds on the trails too. In fact, on one of the hikes below, I never saw another soul. Most importantly, I don’t have to worry about mosquitoes. The days of getting eaten alive by miniature demons are pretty much over in the DC area, and I didn’t have to lather myself in bug spray to hike. That is until I headed back to Florida after my short reprieve. The mosquitoes there haven’t got the memo. But I digress. Here are the fabulous fall hikes I enjoyed on this little jaunt. If you’re ever visiting DC, consider getting outside the city for a day or two and experience some of the area’s natural beauty.

#5 Meadowlark Botanical Gardens

Meadowlark Botanical Gardens in Vienna, Virginia is managed by NOVA Parks. It consists of 95 acres of ornamental display gardens and unique native plant collections. While the main walking paths are perfect for strollers, there are also plenty of wooded hiking trails around the lakes and forested exterior. Since 2012, it’s also home to the fascinating Korean Bell Garden, which includes a 3-ton “Bell of Peace and Harmony,” decorated with symbols from Korea and Virginia.

Since it was not an overly taxing hike, really it was more of a nature walk, I headed over to the next one on my list: Teddy Roosevelt Island.

#4 Teddy Roosevelt Island

Theodore Roosevelt Island is a 91-acre wilderness preserve that serves as a memorial to the nation’s 26th president. The Swamp Trail is a gentle, 1.5 mile trail that extends along the perimeter of the island and offers views of the Potomac. This hike is so close to DC that you can see the the Kennedy Center, Watergate Hotel, and the Washington Harbor Complex through the trees.

If you’d like to add another mile and a half, try the island’s two short interior trails. Make sure you stop in the Memorial Plaza to see the large statue of Teddy and read some favorite quotes embedded in the stone memorial.

#3  Scott’s Run Nature Preserve

Only one mile from the beltway on Georgetown Pike, the Scott’s Run Nature Preserve is a little piece of wilderness saved from urban sprawl. I love to warm up my hiking skills here with the easy jaunt to the falls.

Scotts Run Waterfall

The great thing about this nature preserve managed by Fairfax County Parks is the range of hiking trails here. Some are gentle and wind quietly through forest.

Scotts Run Woods

Other trails require hiking up and down precipitously steep hills and cliffs. In many places the trails descend sheer bluffs, and you have to move very  carefully down rocky cliffs.

Bluffs along the Potomac River

You can mix and match your choice of interconnecting trails on the preserve’s 384 acres. If you want to follow a more established route, try the 2.5 mile loop mapped out here. It hits all the highlights the park has to offer.

#2 Billy Goat Trail

Since this is my year of being adventurous, I had to go back to Billy Goat Trail A at Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historic Park. It is one of the most popular and challenging trails in the metropolitan DC area. The hike takes you over angled rocks and rough terrain while providing great views of the Potomac River. The toughest part to me is the 50’ traverse taking you to the top of cliffs.

The total hike distance is about four miles including the walk back to the parking lot along the toll path. You can add the Billy Goat B and C trail segments to make it a longer 7 mile hike. B gives you a taste of rock scrambling without the fear factor of A’s heights, and C is a nice calm hike with views of the river.

Tip: You can access this trail for free by parking in the lot across from the Old Anger’s Inn at 10801 MacArthur Blvd, Potomac, MD, but get there early if you’re going on the weekend. Otherwise there is a fee at the Great Falls Tavern and Visitors Center entrance.

#1 Great Falls National Park

My absolute favorite fall hike in the area is Great Falls National Park. The entrance fee is $10 per car (if you don’t have a national parks pass), but it is well worth the view of Great Falls where the Potomac River falls over a series of steep, jagged rocks and flows through the narrow Mather Gorge.

Great Falls Panoramic

There are 15 miles of hiking trails, but I like the River Trail best because it follows the Potomac River for about 1.5 miles, along the tops of the cliffs. In some areas, this trail runs right next to the edge of the cliff, offering spectacular views of the Potomac and Mather Gorge.

Great Falls National Park

If you look across the river, you can see the Billy Goat Trail on the Maryland side.

Tip: Don’t try to go here after 10:30 on weekends during the summer. The line can be up to 45 minutes. Also, I recommend stopping at the Visitor Center before starting your hike. You can get  a trail map and watch the short video on the history of the Falls. After leaving the Visitor Center, be sure to take the opportunity to stop off at the three overlooks on your left as you begin the trail. They provide great views of the Falls and river and provide great photo opportunities. Take your time and enjoy the stunning views along this trail.

The greater Washington DC region is surrounded by miles of trails, from well-traveled paths through local parks to hidden gems that cross state lines into Virginia and Maryland. Here you’ll find the best hiking trails from easy walks close to the city, to more challenging climbs in one of the National parks. This fall your travel bucket list should include a dose of adventure and the great outdoors! Easy hikes and nature walks include Meadowlark Botanical Garden and Roosevelt Island, while the difficulty level can vary at Scott’s Run Nature Preserve, Great Falls National Park, and the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historic Park. No list of DC area hikes is complete without a nod to the region’s popular Billy Goat trail. #hikes #DC #Virginia #Maryland #DMV
