Camping On Jaames/tablerock

[tho1mas]

What is the lowest part of the James that you can pull out a set up camp? There is a pretty gravel bar at the upper end of McCords Bend but I did know if that was ok.

Thanks

You can camp pretty much anywhere in there as long as you are not going over fences you wont have anyone mess with you.

Shoals Motel/Campground might be open. They have a pretty nice place you can go in and camp out. Don't think JRO is open yet, If you're floating through, it use to be nice to camp out at the Genrty Cave Hole. Or a 1/4 mile down at Taylors Ford. But, I wouldn't leave a car at Blunks overnight any more, sure to get vandalized.

The river will be flooding the next fews days, It'll be hard on what's left of the white bass run but will be good to clean out the river. Maybe it will clean out that mess of gravel in front of the Galena launch ramp.
