Notes:
Today we headed southbound to the Maryland - West Virginia border. I had never been to Harper's Ferry before. We got to see the Potomac River & hike along the C&O Canal towpath, which I've done many times before when I was younger.

| Trek not so happy about crossing the railroad bridge. This is how he gets holes in his backpack. |
