Coastals

I am still here. Just not sure if I can get out again. Can't keep leaving the kids with Grandma. They ware her out!

Thanks! I'll check out the photos.

Yes, my grandparents on my Mother's side are from San Migal, Açores. My wife is from Lisboa/Lisbon Portugal.

Just wanted to thank everyone who helped get us on the river. Nate, Richard, Mike and Keith for being our/my guides. And Jeff & Kristen...even though I didn't get to paddle with you, thanks for putting me in contact with people to get me/us on the river. Hope to see you in CT/northeast some day!...

Can someone please TEXT me an address to put in the GPS?

Anyone running the Lower James Monday or Tuesday? I did the upper with a group with my wife today and would like to do the Lower before I head back to CT. I did the lower a couple years ago, but want to try my new boat. If possible, please email me directly Internet connection here (Ashland/Mom's) i...

Thanks everyone! We're packed up and heading out later tonight. I have my Pyranha Karnali, which is still new to me, to hit some II+ - III with and my Jackson Superstar to do some Park & Play and do the CL II with my wife and swift water CL I with my son.

I'll be in town on the 1st. Looking to hit the James river a couples time. I can do Class III - III+. I'd also like to do a Class II section with my wife. She'll be in a very stable Remix XP-10. Also, if there is a Swift Water/Class I section about a 1/2 mile long I'd like to do that with my son. I ...

I can go during the week as well. Doesn't have to be the weekend. Thanks for the info.

I'm going to be in town the week of July 4th. Can anyone recommend a 100-200yd stretch of of swift-water with a little Class I in it and a recovery pool at the end. I want to work with my 7yo son on getting in and out of eddies. He's been in a boat for 3 years and does wet-exits every time he's in h...

About 3 years ago I met up with a group from here to paddle some Class II-II+ sections of the James river. (I know we ended just below pipeline) I'll be in town for part of the week of July 4th. We will be getting into Ashland the 1st or 2nd and most likely heading back home on the 5th. I'm looking ...

I'll be heading down to my mother's in Ashland on the 3rd. Looking to do a run on the James either Sunday morning or Monday. I met up with some people last year. I tried to search my old emails to find contact info. I found "John" and "slo2rol". I call myself a II+ paddler. The g...

Thanks for everything today. It was nice to meet everyone. I had a great time. I'm looking forward to coming back when it's 5 or 6 feet!!!

Woo hoo! So, I pass? I can join you guys? You mention a climb. Is there anywhere there is no climb? My wife and mother will have my kids (and 4yo and 1yo) so the stroller won't climb too well. (Don't think Mom would either) I'm leaving at 4am tomorrow (Fri) to head to VA. Don't know what I'll have f...

I've been in and out of a boat for about 15 years. I never really knew anyone else that paddled, so until this year, I would grab my boat, head to the local (about an hour away) P&P spot and hope someone was there. I would also paddle the local Tuber Run once a year. So, I might log 10-15 hours ...

Mornings are fine with me. Is there a park and play spot where my mother and wife can come to watch and take photos/video?

By any chance, is there anyone coming from Ashland?

Is Balcony Falls part of Hollywood Rapids? (Just researching Youtube so I know what I'm in for)
