18% GRADE or Ding Bats

Two unbelievable “things”

FIRST….

This would make any driver pucker……………….and it’s in the mountains…….near Baltimore on a back road. Think about it.  Have you been on anything steeper and survived?  Hey Pennsylvania, Maryland has some mountains too!SDC10301

 

SECOND…..Ding bats.  This is really so unique. Here’s the park.DSC_0001

Real nice campground water & electric with nearby views in the park.DSC_0004

They even provide wagons for tenters.  I have never seen this.  DSC_0011

This was the Shenandoah River that we kayaked on the other day.DSC_0005 DSC_0006 

This is where we went into the main part of the river. DSC_0020

We launched from here in about two feet of water.DSC_0021

Oh yea the bats………… People have walked by and didn’t even notice the bats.  Others like us, where very surprised. Their in the left display case.DSC_0024

These are live bats that take refuge in this State Park information display case.  The white portion is a picture of bats in the case with them.  DSC_0012 

I lightly pressed on the plastic cover and they moved around.  There must be a hole up top for them to get in or out.   They were really not that bad looking – kinda cute.DSC_0013
