A short drive away from the Frederick county water shed is Catoctin Mountain and Cunningham Falls State Park. Today we only visited Catoctin since we had a limited amount of time in the afternoon. That is one great thing about the trails here. Most are easily accessible by road and if you want to keep it short and sweet you totally can! With our limited time we hiked up to Cat Rock and let me tell you this is one heck of a leg work out, especially if you are trying to shake the wintertime blues and haven't been hiking for a while!

Frederick County Watershed
Hike date: April 3, 2011
If you are looking for a little variety in terrain look no further because the Frederick county watershed has it for you! This place, aka the Frederick County Municipal Forest, offers everything from trout fishing, mountain biking, hunting, and hiking. This location is extremely popular to all types of cyclists so if you are headed out on a weekend expect to be sharing trails with bikers. On some occasions I have run into groups of 30 or more people out biking here.
