Ive never ran from Salisbury down to Meyersdale but have ran everything else down river. Meyersdale
to Garrett is a pretty calm relaxing paddle if is what you are into then you are in luck. If your
lucky and go when the river is up you may be able to surf in a few holes. Not bad great for people
not into whitewater. From Garrett to Rockwood there is some nice rapids at the beginning for then
it drops to flat water for a good while. Some spots if you are a floater you may get blown back
upstream. Overall really easy with some playboating ops. From Rockwood down to Markleton is a lot
more enjoyable if you dont like to paddle a lot of flat water. At higher levels big bouncy waves
and you can find that this section can offer a good bit to play around with as well. I ran this the
other day at 2.26 and it was low but still runnable. I plan to run this when its high to play in
the double falls section. Should make nice play holes
