Expedition

So this one is going to be very complicated because it's right next to the Appalachian trail but there's a lot of private property to the Appalachian trail so access is complicated -- OfficeLinebacker (talk) @39.0991,-77.9020 17:28, 16 June 2020 (EDT)

I had to park here, two and a half miles away, to gain the access I needed. -- OfficeLinebacker (talk) @39.0728,-77.9127 17:37, 16 June 2020 (EDT)

Met Jessica at the waterfall. Onward. -- OfficeLinebacker (talk) @39.0695,-77.9026 18:12, 16 June 2020 (EDT)

I simply ran out of time, and my turnaround alarms sounded. Even after pressing on for a while after that -- OfficeLinebacker (talk) @39.0917,-77.8867 19:47, 16 June 2020 (EDT)

I reached my turnaround time alarm. I have to turn back where I may not make it out before sundown. -- OfficeLinebacker (talk) @39.0917,-77.8867 19:48, 16 June 2020 (EDT)

Photos

Here we go. @39.0724,-77.9117
unfortunately, this is where the journey ends. The Appalachian trail takes an extremely winding route, and while the distance as the crow flies was 2.5 miles, the distance hiked up until now is over four miles of very steep and sometimes rugged trail @39.0918,-77.8867
