The SF Piney is a scenic, wooded, class V- run with nearly-continuous technical and boofy boulder gardens. Some folks opt to do laps on the 'Cascades' section near the top, which is a real highlight of this run. But don't neglect the rest of this section - there are plenty more drops downstream.
Give yourself time to explore this Virginia gem and keep your eyes open for wood.

This was my first time down the cascades. Going back every time the piney runs.
