I might be up for a run there as long as it's not too early. What time are you thinking of meeting?

North Anna

I heard this river isn't worth it, mostly flat water, one good rapid at the very end.

North Anna looks like a snoozefest so it is now cancelled. I am going to wait and see what comes up for tomorrow morning. Watch board for details.

Don't dis the N Anna!

FYI- The North Anna is a wonderful run. With a good level there are a lot of features for play and incredible beauty (and history) along the banks. The Falls line rapid is certainly the main feature, and in my opinion is worth the lead up, but the whole run is worthwhile.

Due to low water, it is not run often, but for those who have not run it, I would suggest that when you have a chance, be sure to catch this gem of a river. I wish I was available to go today with the higher water.
