According to National Parks Service:

"Due to flooding, the towpath is closed from MP 88-89. Visitors will need to use the detour at Burnside Farm off the towpath to Spring Dell Road, to Neck Road, to Dellinger Road and to Dam #4 Road to get around this area."

Ray, is this the same area that was detoured 3-4 years ago so they could rebuild the concrete path that hugs the Potomac? It was about a 6 mile detour on roads until it was completed. That mile marker range sounds familiar. Thanks, John
