Pictures from a good float Sat. June 22, 2013 on the Rappahanock River.  Motts Run to Fredericksburg, Old Mill Park.  River level was 3.2 feet.  Great level for canoeing.  Far left drop bypass was open. 

We got the mad river canoe free from a difficult pin after one tip-over.  Brandoon to the rescue!




















Un-pinned the 16' Mad River Canoe.  Fortunately it poped back into shap nicely.

Float Plan Rappahannock River Float

Rappahannock River Float is all planned for the Sat 6/21.



Saturday AM we will travel to Fredericksburg for a canoe/kayak trip, Motts Run to downtown Fredericksburg, VA.

You will need a swimsuit, and Tshirt. Maybe a long sleve sun shirt.  Shoes should be older shoes which can get wet, or water shoes, but they should stay on your feet in the water.  
You may bring a dry change of clothes to put in a dry bag.
The trip may be about 5hrs, we will stop, play and enjoy snacks on the river.  I'll bring boats, paddles, lifejackets, safety items, and extra drybags.  We can trade boats and practice some skills in the moving river. 

Joining us as of today are: Brandon B. Al S. Adam S. Joey S. Daniel S.
We will leave Arlington at 11am, and be home around around 7pm.

We always remember to check the weather and the river level!  Sat will be the same level as the trip we took earlier this year.Sat. will be sunny and about 85 degrees.
