That link to the Shenandoah National Park makes me wonder how/why the mountains got named?

Quote:
To the east, look for iconic Old Rag Mountain (3,268’)...

Rounding out the view is tree-covered Nakedtop (~3,750’)...

My 17 yo son is a little annoyed with the wife and I. He wants to go hiking and camping at Old Rag tomorrow, and we gave him a preliminary "no way!"

It's a beautiful area, and I know he would have a blast if he went. But he wants to go with some kid we don't know and have never met, don't know their parents, don't know the skill level or attitude of that kid. Plus my son has already promised to help out on a service project tomorrow for another kid, so he would be breaking his word to that kid. And it's supposed to be cold in the mountains tomorrow, and he hasn't planned anything about where he would camp, what he would pack or eat, what gear to bring, where they would park, etc. etc.

So he's going to pitch it to us again tonight, and if his plan is very concrete and makes sense, we might let him go. He'd still be breaking a promise to help this other kid, but there are lots of other volunteers.

So anyway, yeah. We've been talking about Old Rag a lot this week.

You couldn't say no if he was taking a girl to Nakedtop, could you?

What about a naked girl in an old ragtop?
