In Cumberland, Maryland, the Spring, or Vernal, Equinox occurred at 11:06 p.m. on March 19, according to the Gregorian calendar imposed on the world by Pope Gregory XIII in 1582. The Equinox marks the astronomical beginning of the spring season in the Northern Hemisphere. I have decided that between the Spring Equinox and the Summer Solstice on June 20 I will wander on the Great Allegheny Passage, a bike and hiking trail built on the roadbeds of now-abandoned railroads that extends 150 miles from Cumberland to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Another trail, the C&O Canal Towpath, runs 184.5 from Cumberland to Washington, D.C, making it possible, in season, to ride a bike—or hike, if you are so inclined—334.5 miles from Pittsburgh to Washington. No motorized vehicles (except for electric bikes) are allowed on the entire path.
Covers Cumberland, Maryland, the Queen City that once served as the gateway to the West; the GAP from Cumberland to Frostburg, including the town of Mount Savage, once the cutting edge of the Industrial Revolution in the United States, and Frostburg, the Mountain City, home of Frostburg State University.
Included are 157 photographs (color on devices that support color).
