here seems crucial because the river gets most of its water from the releases @ Lake Anna. Because
of the heavy rains they have been releasing up to 2,000- 3,000 cfs (more than enough to make it a
fun run). It took 3.5 hours to run the full 9.5 miles, stopping only once to scout and playing a
little on the way. The first few miles had some small features, sm waves and holes to play in, the
sections were spread out with @ 1/2 mile flatwater between rapids. It does braid quite a bit and
provide some cool different lines and options. About half way through you start to hit some bigger
rapids (class II+/III) and the flatwater sections get smaller. The major rapid that is talked about
if the Fall Line Rapid. This was a Class III + (IV) at this level and a must scout . We scouted
from the left bank, the far right lines looked fun but had some big holes and pourovers. We took
the far left line and dropped a nice big rockslide/chute then portaged the island to run the rest
to the main flow. Before we put back in to run the rest of the rapid we got a chance to see how big
and nasty the far right side looked. After fall line it does flatten out and its a quick paddle to
the takeout. Overall this is a great run , great scenery, fun at @ 1000 to 2000 cfs. I'll post some
pics from the trip.
StreamKeeper please post it? You actually pass it on this float after the Fall Line rapid. 2.Fall
Line rapid has a portage trail on river left, if you skirt the left bank as you approach the rapid
you should see it 3.I have pictures of fall line rapid I'd like to post here if the Stream Keeper
would contact me.
accordance with the Float Fisherman of Virginia sign posted there. This run definitely needs a
relatively high level of water to adequately negotiate the Class III at the fall line, about 8
miles into the trip. Great scenery, pristine and natural. Easy run except for the rapids at the
fall line. Try the fishing, but be sure you have a valid license! Fritz Crytzer
