Rappahannock 11/29 - 11/30 or...

Post by StickMan »

Hello rain and readers!

I missed the OCT on the Rapp the 16th. I'd like to hit it Friday or Saturday. Should be a fun level.

If no one wants to do the Rapp I'm up for the Upper James or Appomattox.

Never ran the Appomattox so I might be more keen to run that below 5 foot for a personal first D.

Count me in! Friday or Sat. I'd need help with the lines on the Rapp or the App since I have only been down them once each. I'm also up for UJ play day.

Hey Gabe, well if no one else bites we'll just do the UJ as we're both comfortable there. I just wanna get out on a river. I'm up for any day anytime. Still time to narrow things down and others to join in.

I've ran the Rapp a few times, last time I ran it solo @ 3.6 back in February so I'm pretty comfortable with the main lines through the main rapids. Plus 3-4 foot is were it will be if we go. Not to knowledgeable on play-spots but take them as they come.

The Appomattox has been on my to-do list so I have no clue about her, we'd need someone knowledgeable there.

I'm up for anything but the LJ as its outta my league at the coming levels.

So you're meeting at VFW @ 7:30 Saturday?

If this is firm I'm in.


Gabe, I'm also still up for a UJ run Friday if you're up for that still too. Just name a time to meet at Reedy. Looks like it will be over 7 foot.

Raven, how about Friday UJ at 11:30? That should give me enough time to sleep in and be the warmest time of the day.

Perfect Gabe, see you at 11:30 @ Reedy tomorrow!

Tristan, I'd like to but family and food took priority today!

Nifter, I'm in Saturday. I'll call you in a bit.
