	Missing 1894 Horseheads Bridge Co. bridge, Somerset County, Pa.
		The Casselman River flows through, and the major waterway or a tributary can cause road flooding during storms less severe than last week's.
		Todd says he has found "two nearly identical bridges (with the same portal design and ornamentation), but neither of them still had their plaques." One of these is also over the Casselman River, located two bridges upstream in Salisbury, on Depot Street.
		But residents say they could count on Moser Bridge, which spanned the Casselman and was more than 100 years old, as a refuge that rarely flooded because of its higher elevation.

		The Casselman River ] [T.U. North Branch of the Potomac River ] [ Savage River ] [ Youghiogheny ]

		If the word Savage, as in River, and Big Savage, as in Mountain, evokes nature red in tooth and claw, it is a misnomer.

	Fishing Trips On The Middle Yough Youghiogheny River
		Beyond where the Casselman enters the stream, the river becomes larger and much of it is difficult wading, depending upon dam releases and seasonal stream flows.
		Much of the difference is attributable to Youghiogheny River Lake, from which the river emerges near the town of Confluence.
		Cold water released from the dam keeps the middle stretch of the river (the stretch running roughly between Confluence and Connellsville) fishable most of the year, even in the hot summer.
