Maury

Due to high water today, we went out at Jordan's Point. The level was around 9.1 ft in Rockbridge Baths, so it would be safe to assume a level of 9-10 feet here. We put in underneath the Route 11 bridge and floated 4 miles down to where the South River enters the Maury. This took approximately 1 hr (including getting out to scout the broken dam/lock @ mile 3). Excellent run. We decided to run river right and went around the right side of the old dam. After going through and looking at the left side, we figured it was possible, but most likely sticky (maybe next time) Overall smooth run, no major holes at 9 ft, just lots of fast moving water. The random currents would occasionally shake the boat, but not so much as to grab and edge of the kayak.
