- UPDATE - We're going to paddle Walker Creek, meet at the put-in, which is in the park at the junction of rte 100 and rte 811, at 10:30 AM Saturday. Let me know if you are coming, here or at 434-444-0157.

Too soon to set which section, but we will do the New from Pembrook to Bluff City, meeting at the put-in at Snidow Park Landing

-OR-
if the water is at the right level we will do Walker Creek from the bridge near J&J Grocery on Pulaski Giles Turnpike to Egglrston on the New River.

The New here is wide with ledges and some big, long wave trains that can be a little pushy (II-II+).

Walker Creek is narrow, quick, and technical, and could have occasional wood (II+).

Either one is a fun day, but Walker Creek doesn't often have water for us at this time of year.

Let me know if you are interested - preferably by Thursday evening, as I will be camping at Claytor Lake State Park, and my cell coverage is spotty in the park.

I am in! I’m Katie, paddle an open boat, and live in Blacksburg. I’ve done that New section often, I don’t think I’ve e done Walker.

I'm interested, too. I've done that stretch of the New but not Walker.

I've updated the root post - we'll paddle Walker Creek on Saturday. Meet at 10:30 at the put-in, at the intersection of rte 100 and rte 810 (link to map: https://goo.gl/maps/aX4ryG88dSy ).

Class II+, looks like it will be around 5 feet, 600 cfs. Let me know if you are coming, either here or by phone or text at 434-444-0157.

I am definitely still in!
