Day 3 Ohiopyle to Meyersdale PA

-

 


The Levi Deal Mansion B&B is the snazziest place I have stayed so far. Old Levi was a coal and timber baron at the turn of the century and apparently a show off.  There is a ballroom on the top floor.


Today’s ride started chilly and misty in the mountains.  The trail has signs like this, signaling just how far your legs have to go.  


Stopped in Confluence PA for breakfast and traded the Yough River for the Casselman River.

Lots of animals on the trail today, chipmunks who seemed hell bent on suicide as they darted in front of the bike, rabbits, squirrels and even a peacock who ran away when I stopped to take his picture.  So when one deer walked across the trail I was OK, but when his buddy, popped up, hesitated and looked  at me, I yelled “Please stay there.”  Guess he speaks English.  

Found the light.

Hi Anne, I love that trail! I used to live in Cumberland, and biked it often, but only got as far as West Newton. It's a wonderful ride. You've got a great 'down hill' to look forward to, after you leave Frostburg!!

Stay safe!!

HinAnne, all downhill from there, I think you’ll get to ride through the Paw Paw Tunnel outside Cumberland, make sure you have a flashlight for that one! Weather should be great for your trip and not too hot. Be safe on the other half of your trip!

Hi Anne
What an amazing trip! I’m so proud of you.
It looks like you’re going south of Harrisburg or you could stay here.
May the rest of your journey be safe and sunny weather.
