I visited the NCRR trail north of Baltimore on Sunday (January 28), at
Monkton Road near mile 4, and the next road crossing north of there.
The trail was an icy deathtrap, with several inches of exposed solid
ice along nearly the entire length we explored.  It was difficult to
walk along the trail; biking was absolutely impossible.  (The portions
due north of both road crossings were, however, clear of ice for about
30 feet.)

They seemed to have had some severe flooding of the stream that flows
adjacent to the trail, and the sides of the trail seemed to show that
the trail itself was flooded in spots.

Waiting for the thaw,

Thanks for the info.
I have been pleased with the way Baltimore has thawed out and was hoping 
to take a trip out to NCRR soon, on a moderately warm day.  Not yet I 
guess.
