Susquehanna RiverRiver, central New York, Pennsylvania, and Maryland, U.S. One of the longest rivers in the eastern U.S., it is about 444 mi (715 km) long. It rises in Otsego Lake, central New York, and winds through the Appalachian Mountains before flowing into northern Chesapeake Bay. Though it was never an important waterway because of obstructions, including rapids, its valley was at one time a significant land route to the Ohio River system and was later a coal-mining region.

During the ceremony, the newest section of the Susquehanna River Water Trail was dedicated: a 225-mile stretch from Cherry Tree to Northumberland, Pa. For their analyses, Reusser and his colleagues collected quartz samples from the walls and channels of two gorges, each 10 to 20 meters deep: the 3-kilometer-long Mather Gorge on the Potomac River along the Maryland-Virginia border and the 5-km-long Holtwood Gorge along the Susquehanna River in Pennsylvania. The Route 201 project will begin on the Route 201 bridge spanning the Susquehanna River between Vestal and Johnson City and extend to the Route 201 bridge spanning Grand Avenue in Johnson City. |
