Trip Report

ReporterJacob Malcom

We ran this at a gauge height of 2.8' today, 09 Oct 2021, in packrafts, entirely smooth trip. Very pleasant paddle throughout, no strainers present and no portages required. Biked back up to the put-in at the bridge on MD-34, with a few hills but easy ride. (Note that Sherrick Farm Trail from Burnside Bridge Rd to MD-34, which some apps give as the fastest route by bike, is not actually open to bikes; go into Sharpsburg then out 34 instead.)
