Hiking around C’Ville — Ragged Mountain Natural Area

Friday we did a hike in Albermarle County right outside of Charlottesville’s city limits.  It was in the Ragged Mountain Natural Area, which is a 980 acre forest with 2 lakes.  We did an out-and-back hike to see the main lake as well as the “sights” indicated on the trail map.

The first “sight” along the trail — the mountain man and Bob
Another view of the lake
The only time I want to be this close to a black bear and her cub!
Apparently, I’m partial to lake views
The next “sight” a bird with a fish
