River Description

Virginia Whitewater, Roger Corbett



This is a whitewater run through a remote beautiful gorge. Challenges include ledges, sloping ledges and Alder thickets at high water. This river has the unfortunate distinction of being one of the few VA rivers where a paddling fatality has occurred. There is a hiking trail that crosses the river frequently for scouting and rescue. It's a beautiful hike as well.
