  • Harpers Ferry AT walking bride to open by the end of June 2020

    Good news from the ATC, regarding the AT walking bridge across the Potomac River.
    CSX and NPS have announced that they plan to start work on the walking bridge across the river within the next two weeks, with hopes of opening it by the end of June.


    UPDATE (06/21/2020): CSX railroad is finally working on the bridge in Harpers Ferry. They started a couple of weeks ago. It took them longer to get the permits, imagine that. Estimated finish time is now the latter part of July.
    CSX is also supposed to be starting shuttling from HF around the C&O to Maryland but the're still waiting for that to happen.
    Here is a photo of the progress from 10 days ago.

    Is Walmart going to squash Swayer water filters???

    3rd lunch chat.
    Failed to mention, it looks like Wally removed Sawyer filters from their shelves. So if you are at one check the clearance isle.
