88) Catoctin Mountain Park

Visited Saturday, July 27th, 2013

Get there early, on the weekend.

Catoctin is a very nice, traditional national park, with camping opportunities and lots of hiking trails.  After finding a place to park (not Muir Woods-difficult, but tricky), we hiked over to a local waterfall (which actually sits in the state park, even though 90% of the hike is in the national park).  It's a nice trail, a bit under 3 miles, and not too strenuous (read - I could handle it, as bad shape as I'm in).

Oh, and our timing was perfect.  A _downpour_ started 10 minutes after we left the park.
