Parking lot at (or across from) the old Sycamore Island Store on MacArthur Blvd at the intersection
David Cottingham will lead a trip on the Potomac from Great Falls Park to Sycamore Island, the course for the CCA 71st Annual Downriver Race. One of the purposes of this trip is to show people interested in the Downriver Race the course prior to the race itself. We will meet in the parking lot at (or across from) the old Sycamore Island Store on MacArthur Blvd at the intersection of MacArthur and Walhonding Road at 11 am on Sunday, May 3. We will transfer boats and drive to Great Falls (MD) Park. We will launch from Sandy Beach, paddle through Mather Gorge, and to Sycamore Island, about 7 miles.
Old Anglers Inn, lower lot.
Receive tips from nationally ranked Wildwater paddlers (Bob Bofinger and Sandrine Deglin) before the Potomac Downriver Race. Suitable for long boats; option to borrow boats (Wavehopper or Wildwater), subject to availability. Please let trip coordinator know what type of boat you plan to bring or if you would like to borrow a boat.
Great Falls C&O Canal NHP
The 71st annual Potomac Downriver Race.
This Sunday 10 May, Tim Tilson will coordinate a trip from Riley’s Lock to Pennyfield Lock. This is a Class I+ trip. The weather will be 77- 80 degrees with a 15% chance of rain. The level is projected to be 3’ (3,000 cfs) so this will be a low water run. However appropriate safety gear (helmet, skirt etc.) are required. Meet at Pennyfield Lock (39.0569, -77.2937) at 1:00 pm to set shuttle. Please have eaten lunch and be ready to paddle.
