Okay, so the guy’s review below mine is informative, but it really doesn’t have anything to do with the listing of this business. Even though technically this isn’t a business, it is talking about a rock. A rock that Thomas Jefferson wrote about his experience visiting Harper’s Ferry in 1783. Supposedly this is the rock that he was hanging out on when he declared his love for the area. I snapped a few shots for you to look at, and it provides the view of the rock and the view that you can see from the rock. The rock itself is covered with carvings of people’s initials in it. People were also climbing on it. Unless you are skillful at climbing, I wouldn’t exactly advise it since it is a little slippery. I managed, but I could see someone having an accident here and I would really hate to see the day when it happened. Don’t forget to walk past the rock further up the hill to go visit the cemetery and Lockwood house.

A super awesome and beautiful place to look down the Potomac River Valley and watch the Potomac and Shenandoah rivers come together. The view-shed is well maintained by the workers who take care of the nearby Appalachian Trail. It is very easy to get to from the main downtown area of Harper’s Ferry. All you have to do is to walk up the old stone steps and go by St Peter’s Catholic Church and the ruins of the Episcopal Church and Jefferson Rock will not be far from that. You can’t miss it, By The Way. the
