Catoctin Mountain National Park

Photos from my hike on the Hog Rock Train in Catoctin Mountain National Park, Maryland, USA. Overlapping trails include: wolf rock, chimney rock and Thurmont vista.

I am looking forward to getting back to hiking in parks. The last year has been a challenge. It appears we are nearing a point when it will be responsible to travel cautiously as vaccinations drastically reduce the risk of virus in the community.
