Hi All,

I've been riding the Patapsco Valley Thru trail from Jonnycake/Alberton Rd on the south end towards Marriotsville to the north. About an hour and 15 minutes in there are a couple of concerns I have with the map.

In one case the trail isn't blazed well at all to the point where I turned around to head back.

In another case, the white blazed Thru Trail on the map / and the non maintained trail that parallels it are in opposite locations from the map.

Are these points worth reporting? Who should I contact?

Thanks

Mike

Amy's response:

'Sorry about the confusion. Unfortunately I have been tied up with the Rockburn and Charcoal Trails. I know the blazing is awful on the Thru trail and there is a least one large reroute I have
to address. My plan is to get back out there in November to take care of these issues.

So please be patient. I hope everything will be worked out by the New Year. I thank you for you concern and you interest in our trails.

Amy Lutsko'

I know the blazing is awful

The blazing is much improved as is the trail, plus they've added some nice brown Thru Trail signs also.

there is a least one large reroute I have to address.

I saw this reroute as we blew past it ;-) It still seems that the original line which runs right next to the property line is still blazed white, indicating that IT is the thru trail.

It doesn't matter to me, but I thought I'd mention it, in case it's a concern for someone.

Thanks, Mike
