From Cumberland, MD to Pittsburgh and back. Unseasonably cool and some rain. Luckily we were hosted by some amazing Warm Showers hosts and stayed dry. Beware of the steep ramp to the campsites at Trail Inn in Frostburg. And anytime you leave the trail, there’s a steep climb out! Over 300 miles in a week.

p.s. In case you may have wondered, I am wearing the same clothes. In order to save space and weight, I only pack 3 outfits and wash in the middle of the trip. Campgrounds and Warm Showers hosts have laundry. I bring my own detergent. I wear the same sandals – they dry quicker if they get rained on. And waterproof socks work. My rain jacket is my only jacket for rain and/or warmth. Everything has to be multifunctional to carry for over 300 miles.
