Potomac River Dam Release...Guaranteed
Excitement!
A step up from the
Shenandoah / Potomac River raft trip is the Potomac's North Branch guided tour.
Spring and Fall releases from Jennings Randolph Dam
near Keyser, West Virginia and Bloomington, Maryland provide for optimum levels
of whitewater rafting. Rapids are continuous Class II-III+ and are comprised of
waves and rollers up to six feet high. Sections of calm water permit
cliff-jumping, relaxation, and swimming. Trip length is seven miles from Barnum
to Bloomington and experienced guides navigate each raft. Rafters will enjoy a
tasty cookout overlooking the oh-so-blue Jennings Randolph Lake. Our guides
live for this incredible white water rafting journey…Join them!
"Just

& Trail. A good time was had by all, your staff were professional and
entertaining…"
