Trip Report

ReporterTony Allred

According to discussions between the Gunpowder Falls State Park and the Baltimore Canoe and Kayak Club, the gate at the Jones Road take-out will be closed from Memorial Day weekend (May 23, 2015) through Labor Day weekend (September 7, 2015) because of overuse and trash accumulations at Jones Road over the last few summers (Also, US 40 in the vicinity of the river has been marked 'No Parking'). According to the Park, the Jones Road parking area should be open prior to May 23, 2015 and after September 7, 2015.
