The goal of the Roughnecks is to maintain fish passage and a free flowing river for humans. The Crew works in fringe areas to remove blockages that harm the ecology of the river. During this work trip, the Roughnecks will hike or paddle (dependant on the weather) within the Patuxent River watershed and remove blockages impeding the channel. Patuxent Riverkeeper will provide maps, GPS, tools, and drinking water as well as paddling gear and boats if needed. Please be prepared to hike or paddle and bring any additional gear as you see fit...
