Trip Report

ReporterMatthew Thomas

There is currently construction on the Patapsco River. They are in the process of removing dams on the river. We were unable to pass where Union Dam used to be. There was crane work and construction workers not allowing us to pass. There is no easy portage there unless you want to cross route 40 or walk train tracks thru a tunnel. The good news it the old Union Dam site will eventually have a nice rapid there instead of a nasty keeper hole.
