A Snapshot and The Scoop: Towpath Trail, An East Coast Epic Story


No longer in use as a towpath along the Ohio & Erie Canal in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, this  crushed limestone biking and walking trail through the center of the park offered an excellent way for me to spend a few hours exploring the heart of this park, located surprisingly close to Cleveland, Ohio. Although it was fairly busy, I still managed to find some solitude along the path, allowing me to take in the green tunnel of the trail, the grasses growing from the now-defunct canal threading parallel to the towpath, and, if I listened closely, the quiet rush of the little crooked river hidden beyond the trees.
