Kayaking the James in Richmond

OVERVIEW

The James through Richmond is a fun run through class 3 white water (at the 4.8ft level its at right now) that takes you under heavy trafficked bridges and up against a skyline. The water is running at a relatively safe flow (~4400 CuFt./sec) and there are few hazards, so you don’t need a roll in order to sign up but you must have at least paddled through class 3 rapids before.

UVA Outdoors provides:
Kayak, skirt, pfd, helmet/nose plug, splash jacket, seat in Jeep

You should bring:
Towel, sunscreen, water, snacks, $$ for dinner/snacks if you want, swimwear, footwear that can get wet
