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!
