    York County Heritage Rail Trail
    June 1, 2002

    To meet the 20 mile hike requirement for the Hiking Merit Badge, the guys chose to hike the York County Heritage Rail Trail.  This trail is a continuation of the Northern Central Railroad Trail that ends in Maryland at the Pennsylvania boarder.  The trail is a flat trail that parrallels an abandoned rail line and ends in York, Pennsylvania.  The scenery was beautiful, but boy,  the day ended up being hot, 90 degrees!  Enjoy the hike from the comfort of your home by viewing the pictures below!
