It is an easy 60 minute paddle down river towards the Trump Golf Course and we cross the river and paddle under the C&O and up Seneca Creek. There should be live music at Riley's lock. Always a good time. Music starts at noon and let's pull out of the water and bring chairs or blankets and have a picnic. Then we paddle back.
Maryland peeps can paddle in the opposite direction and return to Riley's with us.
Meet at 11:00 AM at the Algonkian boat launch.
Total distance is six miles.
Expect to pay a small launch fee if you don't have the NOVA pass.
Remember to pay the launch fee or buy the annual pass.

We can go for a pint afterwards at Rai's Pizza located at Sterling 21430 Cedar Drive. For more information, click here Landlovers can join us too. We'll post on the event page when we expect to arrive!
