Coastals

Thought I would let everyone know that I'm doing fine, my hip was not damaged and I'm walking pain free.

I'd like to thank my paddling crew and RVA River Rescue team for yesterdays performance. I was attempting to exit my canoe to stretch just above the entrance to Pipeline. My foot got stuck behind me as the canoe flipped causing my recently replaced left hip to disclocate. Great job by Jenny Wiley co...

I'm going to give this old battered body another go at it. Lower only, let me know time at Reedy

If you drive up the Savage River Road, you will find campsites on the right just before crossing the river.
Follow the road until you reach the lake, you will find a large campground there, I believe it's called Big River Campground

there are camp sites all along the upper Savage River

check out James River Homosapiens on Facebook

I'm planning to be there, camping at Robert Craig, site# 60

This is the final scheduled Sunday trip, weather looks as nice as it's been in 2021, river levels are just above 5', good fun level.
I'll be bike shuttling but will be at the take out before 10:30
If you're coming, be at Reedy Creek ready to paddle at 11am

Conditions look great! Temps are rising, river forecast to be 5.8', right smack in the middle of the "sweet zone"

I'm on the Calendar to lead a trip this coming Saturday Feb 12-with no rain in the forecast, opportunities might be limited. My thoughts lean towards the Staircase of the Shenandoah, should be a good level by Saturday. Option 2 is always the James, I'm open to an upper/lower combo but prefer just th...

River is forecast to be 9.6'
That means the upper is the call
Temperatures are still frigid, I can easily call the trip off-
If you want to paddle contact me and we will set it up

I'm pulling the plug for this Sunday-temps are forecast below freezing-too cold for me
Let's hope for better weather next weekend
