It's about 2,500 feet high and looks a lot more dangerous than it actually is. The walk up only takes about 45 minutes, but it's a lot of steep hills and rocky terrain. The views and the sanctuary up above make the workout worth it.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Trailing by three with the clock winding down, senior guard Luke Eddy ran the play exactly how head Elon University men’s basketball coach Matt Matheny wanted. cqjb But he was a half-second late, not able to get sophomore guard Steven Santa Ana the ball in time for a potential game-tying 3-pointer as Elon lost to Georgetown University 77-74 Sunday afternoon in Washington, D.C. “We were definitely going for a three, and we were trying to create — we had a double screen off the other side," Eddy said.
