Description
The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal operated along the Potomac River from 1828 to 1924. It is now a US National Park, and covers 184.5 miles from Washington DC to Cumberland Maryland. Great Falls Tavern and its lock are upstream from Washington DC. A new canal boat began tours in September, 2006. The new boat is named after Charles Mercer, a 19th century congressman instrumental in building the canal. This image is also available as a sharp unmanipulated photo elsewhere in my collection.
