Kayaking the Saluda River's Rutledge Shoals at Erwin Mill Bridge. The first 300 Yards.

This is a quick video of a trip down Rutledge Shoals at Erwin Mill Bridge on the Saluda River in upstate South Carolina.

So cool!

Very cool - how beginner friendly was this trip?

Depends on water levels, but I would not recommend this run for children learning to kayak. There are a few areas that if the kayak gets swamped it will roll on you and a small child could get pulled under the rocks. Thanks for watching!
