While walking back to our car at the end of the MLK 2017 weekend Kathy and I were talking about trying the Laurel Highlands Trail in PA.
We'll have a week in the middle of April, plus the weekend on each end of that week, to get away. There'll be 2 full days of driving plus I figure at leat 1/2 a day for a shuttle from Ohiopyle to the other end of the trail, leaving at best 6.5 days of hiking. We have a couple of questions we're hoping to find answers to.
So, for those of you who know about this trail please help us out here.
Thanks in advance for any info you can send our way.

- Is there likely to be snow on the ground in the middle of April in western PA's mountains?
- What is the terrain really like?
