Over this week long whitewater experience we will paddle 61 miles of the historic upper James River in Virginia from the headwaters at Iron Gate to the Snowden Dam.

Each day we will soak in the beauty of the Blue Ridge mountains and each night we will camp at wilderness river side locations. By trips end, we will have canoed through more than 100 little Class I rapids, and 20 challenging Class II rapids, and our last day we will switch to sit-on-top kayaks and have the option of running the infamous Balcony Falls (Class III) rapid!
