Kayaking The Middle James

OVERVIEW

The middle James (Balcony Falls run) is mostly class I and II rapids with 1 easy class III rapid. This trip is good for all levels (except complete beginners), depending on the water level. If the level is too high, we’ll go some where more appropriate, like the Moormans (class II-III) or the Pony Pasture Run down the James in Richmond (class II). The weather forecast calls for a nice weekend!…
