Tony and I stopped by Fort Frederick State Park in Big Pool, MD. We got there at 4pm and the…read morevisitors center was already closing. It cost $5 for our vehicle for park entrance fees. We couldn't watch the 10 minute video because they were closing due to no activity. We drove over to the parking lot for the actual fort. The Fort was still open but unmanned so the interior buildings were locked. The Fort was built in 1756 for the Indian wars against the white settlement. It was later used in Revolutionary war and Civil War. It's almost 300 yrs old It's a stone fort with very thick high walls. Definitely a nice park. There is a store but it was closed too. There is a campground down along the Potomac River. Definitely recommend you visit when in the area. I would go back again! A great price!!!

I visited the fort in July, and although it was extremely hot, our reenactor and tour guide Bob -…read morewho also serves as the assistant park superintendent - did an outstanding job. Despite the heat, not only did he carried on with the demonstration of the live firing of a flintlock musket, but also took the time to answer all of our questions. He went above and beyond by showing us additional areas of the fort and sharing fascinating information. Bob's dedication and knowledge truly made the drive and visit memorable.

I skipped the park and was here specifically for the bridge. Martin's Mill Covered Bridge is a…read morehistoric wooden covered bridge located at Antrim Township in Franklin County, Pennsylvania. It is a 205-foot-long (62 m), Town lattice truss bridge, constructed in 1849. It uses no arches or exterior supports and was considered strong enough to support a bridge up to 200 feet in length. It was less costly to build than traditional arch supported bridges. It crosses Conococheague Creek. In 1973 the bridge was rehabilitated after being carried downstream by flood waters during Hurricane Agnes. Steel bracing was added at a later date to stabilize the bridge. In spite of being altered over the years due to destruction and restoration it remains a good example of this type of covered bridge design and contains approximately two-thirds of its original timbers. The bridge is only open to pedestrian traffic and is located at the end of a curvy road down to the creek. There is a small area for parking nearby. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. [Review 15581 overall - 571 in Pennsylvania - 1085 of 2021.]

There isn't much to do indoors. No park fee is charged in this area. The point of coming is of course to spend time outdoors. This is one of the areas where the canal is actually carried over a creek by an aqueduct, which is interesting to look at. As this section of the canal actually has water, a pedestrian bridge is necessary to traverse it (or you can drive over a one-lane bridge and park on the scenic side). This section of the canal is quiet, but as with the entire length of the trail, makes for excellent walking.
