High Water on the Bull Run Trail

The rains during the week of March 7 - 10 caused the Bull Run to break out of its banks and cover much of the trail.  The trail below the parking lot at the Centreville trailhead was completely covered with water on Friday, March 10.  The crossing of Popes Head Creek was way under water. Interestingly, where the trail was not under water, it was not very muddy.  But that would be different of 300+ people ran over it twice.  Pictures on Flickr
