Your post caught my eye as I live in the DC / Balt metro area and have heard of Patasco Valley State Park but not been there. I like your photos (especially the water falls shot) and the way you captioned them. Cascades Falls Trail looks very much like the parts of the Appalachian Trail I've hiked in Virginia.

I have hiked a lot of the AT in MD and some in VA and you are absolutely right about similarity of the trails. Rocky, rooty and hilly, but I love It. I'm in the park every chance I get to hike or trail run. It is also one of the premier mountain biking sites in the mid-Atlantic, but it's a little too technical for me. You should check it out if you are nearby.
