[quote=Anonymous]I’ve done Old Rag several times in the last year. I always go on a weekday and try to arrive at the trailhead by around 8:00. Each time I’ve seen just a few people. It is 2.7 miles / 1700 ft of gain to the rock scramble section. The rock scramble section is about one mile. The rest is downhill and easy with several miles on a fire road. It is definitely more challenging than the Billy Goat but I’m sure your son can give you a boost through the scramble if needed. (I’m only 5’1” with average upper body strength and I can do it without help.). Eight hours should be way more than enough time - especially going on a weekday when there won’t be lines of people waiting to get through the various sections of the scramble). I agree with the PP above to wear hiking shoes (or trails runners). Enjoy! It is a fantastic hike![/quote]
