  Only (MO) Event due to the remoteness of the Cranberry Wilderness and the
  reported route finding challenges. This will be my first time leading a t
 rip to this area\, so expect some adventure!\nWe will depart from Vienna M
 etro North Parking at 7am on Friday morning and make the long drive to the
  Cranberry Wilderness. We will stop for a quick lunch in Harrisonburg or S
 taunton. If time allows\, we'll make side trips to see the Falls of Hills 
 Creek and the Cranberry Glades before staring the hike.\n\nFriday\, Aug 7 
 — The Descent (~3–4 miles)\nWe’ll head from the North Fork TH/Big Beechy T
 H down the North Fork and Middle Fork trails to find a riverside spot for 
 the night.\n\nSaturday\, Aug 8 — The River Crossings (~8–9 miles)\nWe’ll f
 ollow the Middle Fork downstream—expect river crossings and great swimming
  holes! We'll camp at the Beechy Run confluence near a beautiful waterfall
 .\n\nSunday\, Aug 9 — The Climb Out (~7.3 miles)\nA steady\, rocky climb o
 ut of the valley. If we start early\, we can wrap up by lunchtime. Note th
 at Big Beechy is a dry ridge\, so we’ll just need to carry our Sunday wate
 r from camp.\n\nMap & Route:\nYou can check out the route here: https://ca
