Hi folks! I am taking my 10yo from Meyersdle to Georgetown next week and would really love any trail condition updates. In particular, if there are any issues with water suply, i.e. pumps not working or any sections of trail that might be closed. Any issues with the hiker bikers or safety concerns? Anything at all will be greatly appreciated! Thank you very much!
Dave

The C&O park service site is not listing any current closures or detours. Haven't seen anything on the GAP website or twitter feed. Haven't seen any issues reported while surfing the internet for trail news. Should be good. Have a great trip!

The only comment I have heard recently from guests (aside from "wow") was that the iodine taste in the hand pump water was very strong. I figure since they only put the handles on the pumps 2-3 weeks ago, they probably treated the water then so its still a bit strong. If you use the hand pumps, make sure you pump it enough to flush it. You don't know when the last time someone else pumped it, it might have been 24 hrs earlier and if you drink the water that was sitting in the pipe for 24 hrs it might taste a bit on the irony side. Enjoy your ride - right now the weather is lovely. Carol
