I'm planning on cycling the trail from cumberland to DC next weekend (7/2-7/4). I know the pawpaw tunnel may or may not be open from the sounds of it. Sounds like it is also muddy and may be worse with the forecasted rains. Any news on trail conditions? I have 48mm slicks and fenders but can swap for knobbies if need be.

The NPS lists closures/detours at Culvert 82 due to high water and recommends calling a shuttle. Is this still the case?

Any tips/tricks are appreciated.
