1lelr project is 10 cruise the
river from Cumberland to
Washington in an enjoyable.
leisurely fashion. They started
this spring, and by taking the
various downriver stretches in
order on occasional Sundays
and week ends. they plan to
complete the cruise by late next
summer.
One reason for spreading the
project over such a period was
to see the river under all con-
ditions and at all seasons.
Their opening trip this year
was on the May 1913 week end
from Cumberland to Paw Paw.
They'll wind up this season on
October 26 by cruising from
Shepherdstown. w. Va, to
Sandy Hook, Md, a few miles
below Harpers Ferry. That will
put about lao miles of river
behind them, leaving 40 miles
to go next summer.
The Potomac is a beautiful
river. and those who are &C
quainted with it only as it
spreads past Washington have
missed much of its splendor.
Many of its upper stretches
past mountains and forests APP
pear so wild it seems that even
the Indians haven't been there
before.
There are rapids where, to
/ the uninitiated at least, it
seems foolhardy for even ex-
pert canoeists to go. Other
stretches are peaceful and
lake-like. Sometimes the river
bank may be forested, or it
may be a rocky cliff. Part of
the time canoeists float past
quiet farmlandS. but in one or
two places they must take care
to keep from tangling with
speedboats and water skiiers.
To say that the cruisers will
cover every inch of the Poto-
mac between Cumberland and
Washington isn't quite true. A
few portageS will be necessary
in the very rough places. such
as Great Falls and Little Falls.
The upriver dams. No. 3 above
Harpers Ferry, No. 4 above
Shepherdstown and No. 5
above WilliamSport, also will
make portageS necessary.
That still leaves plenty of
sporting white water to test a
canoeists skill, although all the
Potomac sections have an IN"
rating. which means they can
be negotiated by novice ca
noeists.
To an innocent bystander,
though. this IN" rating doesn't
seem quite right at one or two
places. This years last trip
in October, for instance, will
take the cruisers through that
stretch below Harpers Ferry
where the scenery up the Shen-
andoah River gap is so gor-
geous.
Here, however, a man must
