January to May | June to October | November and December

November and December

Went up from Shepherdstown (Sharpsburg) to the end of the detour around mile 88.

Brunswick, Harpers Ferry, Seven Locks, Whites Ferry and Edwards Ferry. This is the onset of winter.

The trail is covered with snow the first time I make it out in December. It is cold!
