Planning to run from the dam to rt 36. Level looks like it will stay around 4'+, should be fun. We'll meet around 1:30 at the put in, then shuttle cars. Anyone is welcome to join us.

I may be interested. How do I get there? How long does it take?

Directions and map can be found here:

About 6.5 miles, so it should take about 2-3 hrs to complete the run. It has a couple class 3 rapids, with a lot of class 1-2 stuff. A good amount of flat water too, especially at the start. Weather and water should be great for this run.

Meet us at either the put in or takeout, around 1:30 at the put in followed by shuttling cars to the takeout on Rte 36 in Petersburg.

We drive past the put in on our way to the take out, so it is just as easy for us to drop off boats as to tie them on another vehicle to shuttle. But you are welcome to meet us at the takeout and shuttle back up with us.
