The ASCI Looks Very Interesting
Adventure Sports Center International (asci) is home to the world’s only mountain-top whitewater course and to a diverse array of adventure sports opportunities.
This whitewater park is
set to open the Spring of 2007 on the summit of Marsh
Mountain in McHenry, Maryland. McHenry is 3
hours from the Washington, DC area, 2 hours from
Pittsburgh, and within a 3 hour drive for over 26
million people.
The asci whitewater course is just over 1700 feet
long and drops 24 feet. Pumps lift water from the
lower pond and shoot it out horizontally into the
start pool at a speed of 5 feet per second. At five
locations on the course are variable wave shapers
that allow asci to adjust the waves and hydraulics to
fit the needs and desires of the guests.
