Canoe Kayak Slalom trials are one of many big events coming to Deep Creek Lake

By Don Markus, The Baltimore Sun2:15 p.m. EDT, May 11, 2013

Once thought to be a somewhat out-of-the-way spot for winter ski trips and summer getaways from the scorching heat, Deep Creek Lake and the adjacent Wisp Resort could become “the No. 1 — bar none — adventure sports destination spot in the world” if Todd Copley has anything to do with it.

Toward that goal, Copley’s Deep Creek 2014 LLC will be helping run next weekend’s USA Canoe Kayak Slalom Team Trials there, as well as the sport’s world championships in 2014, marking the first time the championships will be held in Maryland since Garrett County hosted on the Savage River in 1989.

There are other adventure sports competitions scheduled for the area throughout the coming year.

The USA Canoe Kayak Team Trials will be held Friday through Sunday, with a still to be determined number of finishers qualifying for spots on the 2013 World Cup team for the men’s Canoe 1 and 2, men’s Kayak 1 and 2 and the women’s Canoe 1 and 2. (The number designates how many competitors are in the canoe or kayak.)

DNR won't poison pesky Deep Creek Lake plant

SWANTON, Md. — The Department of Natural Resources says it won’t use a herbicide to attack an invasive aquatic plant in western Maryland’s Deep Creek Lake this year.

The agenda for Monday’s meeting of the Deep Creek Lake Policy and Review Board includes an update on the state’s assessment of Eurasian water milfoil. Some area residents say the plant threatens to strangle recreational boating on the lake.

The DNR says a study last year found that milfoil was not outcompeting native aquatic plants. The agency says it will study the matter further this summer but won’t try to kill the invasive plant.

  • April 22, 2013 – 10:56 am EDT

BALTIMORE — Maryland Attorney General Doug Gansler says his annual environmental audit has found the need for enhanced enforcement of pollution laws.

Gansler says pollution related to urban and residential growth is also a concern and the audit highlighted the benefits of increasing public awareness of environmental issues.

The audit was the fifth for Gansler, who visits different areas each year. The 2012 audit covers the Youghiogheny River and Deep Creek Lake in western Maryland, the state’s coastal bays, and the watersheds of the Wye and Savage rivers and the Potomac’s North Branch.
