Post your guess
After spending parts of the past two days on or near the Susquehanna River for stories I'm working on, I have a fun, river-related pop quiz for all my readers.
How long is the Susquehanna River?
As always, no cheating, no Googling, no asking a friend. Just pick a number and post it in the comments.
Hint: It's in the hundreds.
Hint No. 2: The river starts in New York State, runs through Pennsylvania and empties into the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland.
I'll announce the answer and the winner tomorrow.

Hmm, without google, I'd guess about 400, but is total length including the two branches, or just the main branch from NY?

444! I remember, I swam the whole thing. Well not really; but my mom took a class on the river through Millersville and they traveled to different parts of the river and learned about the history of it and stuff.

I'll say between 5 inches and 100 trillion leagues. Just a ballpark guess!!
