Barry Smith and I arrive early for a planned group trek today with comrades, to scout out the Potomac Heritage Trail. But we discover the gate closed to Turkey Run Park. Fallback: the Live Oak Dr trailhead for the PHT, just outside the Capital Beltway. Plenty of parking there, but the trail so icy that it's essentially unrunnable. After a quarter mile of cautious walking and only a few steps of running, we turn back. Under the American Legion Bridge pause for photos of graffiti. Garmin GPS and Runtastic on the iPhone show the route.
