Author Description

Let photographers Ann and Rob Simpson be your guides to the rich fall colors, shadow-flecked woods, bright wildflowers, abandoned homesteads, and diverse wildlife in this park located in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, just west of Washington, D.C. You'll see everything from the brilliant fall colors along Skyline Drive to delicate springtime ladyslippers, from the 1916 Massanutten Lodge to the Rapidan Camp that served as President Herbert Hoover's Summer White House in the 1930s, and from a sparkling icefall at Marys Rock Tunnel to deer silhouetted in mist at Big Meadows.
