Description
A less common Put-in at confluence of Potomac River and Savage River from Maryland side. The Westernport put in (2.1 miles downstream) or the Piedmont put-in (2.0 miles downstream) are generally more popular put-ins because portaging the Dam is avoided and the section of river between the Savage /Potomac confluence and Westernport runs behind the closed paper mill and is industrially ugly.
