Lots of stuff has been running and I got on the Toxaway at low water a week or so ago. A truly scary, yet amazing run. There were a load of people out there that day, go HERE for that trip report.
A couple days after the Tox, my buddy Saunders Southecorvo and I headed north for some Virginia action. Saunders got a Magnum recently and is super happy with his new boat.
We met up with Nate Bell and Michael Shields from Virginia Tech. Big thanks to them for showing me down. (Saunders had been twice before). We set off for the river from Blacksburg. Our destination: Bottom Feeder creek. This creek is super low volume and abundant with cool boofs and tight lines. Here's a sequence of me at Kettles.

A very beautiful creek indeed.

No turning back now.
Mouse trap.

Following Saunders' excellent example.
All good things come to an end.
After the trip to Virginia, we got rewarded with some highwater green for about a week. Here's a video from Gorilla earlier today.
Hope you all enjoyed the post,
and don't forget to shower at least once a week.
