Kayaking on the Potomac River, Brunswick, MD 20090816

I drove up to Brunswick, MD, to paddle on 16 August.  It is about a 45 mile drive and longer than I would normally drive for an afternoon paddle but I hadn’t paddled up there so I figured WTF, eh?  The river, though low, seemed to be running fairly well by my estimation.  It took me a good hour plus to get upstream a couple of miles.

I got up to a point where I could see Weverton Cliffs which is a vantage point on the Appalachian trail that I have hiked to from both the north and south.  The view from there to Harper’s Ferry and the junction of the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers is awesome!
