River Description

8 miles of flat water, 4 miles of "The Rapid", and 3 miles of relatively flat water.
Putin: From US 60 in Rainelle drive north on CR 60/1 for about 3 miles. To cut out the flat water and put in about 1/2 mile below the trestle follow the dirt road from the takeout on river right. Keep taking right turns (3 of them) until you see the river.
Takeout: Just above the bridge on Nutterwood Road which is just off WV 41.
