The Shenandoah Valley

Written by Jack Hassard

On October 25, 2006

Drove today from Marietta to Dublin (VA) on our way to Lynchburg, about 400 miles. Most of the drive was in the gorgeous Shenadnoah Valley. I’ve written before about the Shenandoah Valley in an earlier post in a discussion of plate tectonics, and other matters geology.

Interstate 81 runs the length of the Valley, and from this vantage you can experience hundreds of miles of the valley from Tennessee to Pennsylvannia. On either side of I-81 you will see farms, now the autumn colors, rock strata exposed along the way, and the beautiful mountains of the Appalachians.
