The Tidal Zone

Downstream from Great Shiplock Park is Rocketts Landing, remnants of wharves that served the shipping industry as well as the Confederate Navy during the Civil War. Until recently, the Annabel Lee was docked here, and now the Eagle One resides in its place. Looking back upstream provides us with another view of the city skyline.  Just beyond the dock is the headquarters for Richmond Raft Company. Richmond Raft provides commercially available raft trips covering a large portion of the trip we have just taken.   

 

On river right is Ancarrow's Landing, a part of the James River Park. Not far below Ancarrow's is the outflow from the City's wastewater treatment plant.  

This brings us to the end of our virtual paddling trip from Bosher's Dam to Ancarrow's Landing. Hope you enjoyed the ride.
