McCreery

New - 11. Sandstone to McCreery (WV)

Gauge Conditions
New River at Thurmond, WV Downstream Primary
Runnable: 800.0 – 17,550.0 CFS
Description

McCreery is mainly used as a put-in for the next section downstream (to Stone Cliff or Thurmond), since below Grandview Sandbar and Prince, the river mainly offers a very long pool/lake with houses alongside (i.e., you have to paddle a lot and the scenery isn't very good).  But you can take out here to extend your trip, especially at high water.  Boat ramp and porta-potties, but don't park here.  Parking is across the highway in the big gravel lot.
