OCT 4/4 Bottom Tye or Piney
The bottom Tye trip is [s]most likely[/s] on. It's water level/weather dependent. I'm guessing that we'll have plenty of water! We need at least 150 cfs from a combination of these two gages:
http://waterdata.usgs.gov/va/nwis/uv/?site_no=02027000 - Tye
and
http://waterdata.usgs.gov/va/nwis/uv/?site_no=02027500 - Piney
right now have plenty! with 445 cfs. It's a fun class II. We will meet at Tye River Depot on this map http://goo.gl/maps/NtlFV at 10:30 to set shuttle.
If the group wants to do the Piney/Tye we’ll put in at Rose Mill and take out at the race put in (8 river miles).
If the group wants to do the slightly easier Tye only – we’ll put in at Tye River Depot and take out at Ruckers Run (10 river miles).
feel free to contact me if you need further directions.
You can check this website for other maps and such too http://www.nelsoncountyva.org/NelDRace/
Please contact me to let me know you're going.

I'm thinking about going, I'll see how I feel when I wake up, but it sounds like a nice scenic trip through the mountains, I've been craving one of those
