Just finished Gap (Thu-Sat), and started C&O in Cumberland yesterday (Sunday). Trail conditions from 184 to 170 were not very good. Lots of puddles and mud. And very bumpy, needs some maintenance. Detour over Tunnel was strenuous but not terrible. Took about an hour. Ride after Paw Paw to mile 136 was a lot better. Move to WMRT from there to Hancock, very nice. Heading to Harper's today. Hope this helps.

Trail from WMRT to Harper's Ferry MM 60 very dry and in terrific condition. Riding from Harper's to DC tomorrow.

In closing, Harper's to D.C. dry today. However, several areas east of Whites Ferry in need of maintenance.

Six tough days on GAP/C&O. Be prepared for grinding up hill from Confluence to ECD.
