Back on the C&O

My longest hike for September was an out-and-back on the C&O - pretty as always, but not noteworthy for difficulty.

C&O Canal

I started at Riley's Lock, which I had never been to before, and walked southeast five miles. Less than a mile from the start is the next parking area, where I had been before, so most of it was known territory. There is some pretty territory with "cliffs" made in building the canal, and a good mile of the Potomac River is filled with rocks and rapids. I saw a lot of birds on this section, too.
