Just finished the trail beginning at Cumberland to DC. The trail is in good condition overall, but the Water Spouts ARE NOT OPEN. Therefore, plan on taking a water filtration system of some kind or be prepared to have enough water to last for a while. However, lugging water is heavy and inconvenient; we lugged it and also purchased some in Paw-Paw at the Dollar General. Also, although the trail is in good condition overall, but there is a vast amount of sticks, twigs, and branches every few feet on the trail. So be aware of the tire hazards. The campsites are also in good shape and there is plenty of firewood for a fire if you choose to build one. The porta-potties are also in good shape with enough toilet paper, but its always wise to pack some baby-wipes. Still recovering from the long ride.. Happy trails!!!
