Amherst County and CXT railroad is now pressing charges if anyone is caught using the 30 year old traditional takeout where you walk across the tracks. You will now need to paddle the additional 2 miles down the lake to the boat ramp just before the dam on river left. Trust me they are issuing tickets for trespassing.

The root ball in the confluince is now undercut. there is a large amount of water running underground and boiling up on the otherside. A woman drowned here a couple of weeks ago. Stay far left of the root ball. there is an eddie on the left which will set you up for the run. I have run this three days in a row with people in my party swimming this rapid on two of the days. this was mainly because they would not listen or just hitting the sleeper rock and getting screwed up in the set up.
