We had heavy weather last week and DC had another sewerage overflow near Great Falls, the last report I heard was the repair had been completed and the abatement/cleanup was underway and was scheduled to be complete by last weekend

just got this off the Park website at C&O Canal National Park "THIS PAGE CONTAINS UP TO DATE INFORMATION ON TRAIL AND TOWPATH CLOSURES AT THE CHESAPEAKE AND OHIO CANAL NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK.

----Update May 21,2014----

Capital Crescent Trail has been reopened from Fletcher's Cove to Water Street/Washington Canoe Club.

**Billy Goat Trail is closed due to high river levels. It will open when trail conditions have been assessed.

The Towpath Detour at Big Slackwater remains in effect due to high river levels. Visitors are advised to utilize the Big Slackwater Detour as marked due to towpath flooding at McMahons Mill (Towpath miles 84.4-88.1)"
GOOD LUCK, enjoy
