May 14 ,2025 Put on at Maple Grove Rd bridge put-in with my friend Dave in a duckie . I paddled a recreation kayak .Lots of flow at this level , easy paddle . Only a few easy class one rapids remained at this level , all washed out . At Salisbury Pa take-out on Ord St , rte. #669 level dropped to 800 CFS . Still made for a very nice , safe day on the river .

Plenty of parking at put-in and take-out . Really nice current at 270 cfs , made for easy paddling . Scenery varies from open meadows to heavy forest . An interesting feature was travleling thru Casselman River Bridge State Park .All class 1 at this level .
