About this event

This is one of our favorite rivers. There is one rapid, the rest of the river is fairly mild.   75 mi. from TC. We'll have a leisurely lunch along the way, so bring a chair. Bowman Bridge to Upper Branch Bridge. Appox. 13 miles and 4 hrs. Very easy w a sand bottom. Senior park pass or $5/car. I have purchased the river permits for the day. Bring something to sit on.  Be ready to shuttle a 10:30.
