With only the morning to hike, I decided to head back to the C&O for some more easy miles. Starting at Monocacy Aqueduct, I headed north as far as the camping spot - the aqueduct is too nice to skip if you are there. I then walked south to Lock 26, before returning to the parking lot, for just over six miles.
The section between the Dickerson parking lot and the Monocacy Aqueduct lot is quite a nice section. Much of the canal is watered, with stone cliffs creating by cutting into the hill for the canal. It includes a lockhouse and a power plant (maybe not scenic, but interesting).
