About this event

Description

This is a shortened version of our instructional trips on the easier whitewater stretch of the James River, from Pony Pasture to Reedy Creek. This trip is best suited for those who have been down the river before that want to practice their skills, but not exclusive to that.

Both sit-on-top and traditional whitewater kayaks are available (traditional whitewater kayaks require previous experience). Minimum age is 11. Youth ages 11-13 must be accompanied by an actively participating adult. Max participant weight of 235 lbs. due to kayak limitations.
