Guys, it looks like a lot of turns and such, but it's not hard to follow and a really nice run through the less populated parts of Mid Maryland...Particularly the parts out near Point of rocks to Sharpsburg. Not much to see in Burkittsville, but then again I didn't venture into the woods.
I'm out on Saturday, so I hope you all have good one.
