route through Appalachians from Buffalo NY
We are planning on traveling on US-219 S from Buffalo to Washington DC using the following route. I drove through the Appalachians years ago in a car and I don't really remember all that well how the elevation was. Now that we will be towing a trailer, I am giving it a little more thought, just to be safe. I wonder if anyone familiar with the following route could advise if there are any particularly steep sections etc. that I should be aware of on this route starting on US-219 S.
