On The Way

 This is what the trail looked like for much of the journey.  Basically crushed gravel.  Other parts were two dirt ruts.  However, the Canal Trust and NPS are working to improve the trail.  Near Oldtown the trail is improved with a cambered surface that helps with drainage and is comfortable for both walking and biking.
