C&O Canal – Edwards Ferry

By

TransparentSign30.8On December 13, 2013 the WooFDriver took the PAK for a Mushing Tour of the C&O Canal Towpath in the area of Edwards Ferry. Located at milepost 30.8 Edwards Ferry is home to Lockhouse 25 which was built in 1830. The lockkeeper and his family had a front row seat to the Civil War as this location was a major crossing for both the Union and Confederate troops going to battle.
