I find the river lost itself completely to Chesapeake Bay at the end (even back at Coltons Point). While the Potomac looks spectacular at the Great Falls (because of the cliffs), I think the river is at its best at Piscataway – natural, exciting, and self-contained. What impress me most are those thin trees standing sparsely in a small wetland on the roadside and fields of tall grasses. In this part of Southern Maryland we can still spot campaign signs for Bernie in the yards.
