Catawba River: Powerhouse to Watermill

Type of Outing: Paddle
Total Distance: 5.8-9.3 miles
Difficulty: Moderate; Class I-II
Pacing: Moderate

Please join me for a paddle along the Catawba River with some exciting class I and II rapids. We will meet at Powerhouse around 10AM for unload. Approximate length is 5.8 miles, but we could make it longer and take out at Independence Blvd if we wanted to, making the paddle closer to 9.3 miles.

(Optionally, we could also put in at the dam at Lake James and take out at Watermill for similar mileage.)

There’s a little place called Foxhole Pizza and Subs that I’ve always wanted to try in Glenn Alpine where we could go for food afterwards.
