West Virginia whitewater, Mud River Cabell county, Ona to Blue Sulphur Road bridge section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.   CLASS I-II(III)     1 miles   Jim is not entirely correct. There is the Ona falls. Catch the water up and that would be interesting. Says Stan This is an answer to Cindy's question about the Guyandotte River. There is a put-in at Branchland, then a take-out 3 1/2 hours downstream at Salt Rock. A very nice float with a few riffles, lots of fish and wildlife for viewing. You can also put-in or take-out at the mouth of Mud river in Barboursville which is good for a     Mud River or Guyandotte River float. Salt Rock to B'ville would be a great all day float on the Guyandotte, I'm guessing 10 to 12 miles. Says Mike There is no way there could be any rapids on the Mud River. I agree with the writer below. However, I would love to flatwater kayak down the Guyan which is closer to Beech Fork State Park than the Mud. It connects to the Mud in Barboursville and runs into the Ohio a few miles later. It should be a very plesant peaceful trip. I just can not locate a putin spot. Can any one help? I live 10 miles away from the BF campground. Thanks Says Cindy There is no whitewater on the Mud River. I have walked and canoed       the Mud River many times. There might be a few ripples if there's enough water in the river. During the summer months it looks more like a creek rather than a river. Don't get excited or waste your time. The Mud River is   a great place to go Muskie fishing. If your want a true whitewater experience go to the New River of Gauley River. Says Jim The put-in is not too far from Huntington-Ashland, as you can see on the road map further down. If you've been out of state whitewater rafting and kayaking you might find the rivers here more forgiving, so you'd better keep in mind that a large number of rivers in this state are quite easy.
