Downstream, from down the river- you hike along above the river and can imagine how deep the steep sides of the river are underwater. Deep, powerful currents- this is the Potomac which is the size of a bay not that far away, below Washington DC.
Downstream, but just below the waterfalls at the top end.
You get what you pay for when you ask a passrby to take your picture! Too tired and sweaty to try again.
