Drinking plenty of water will also help to keep your system hydrated. While drinking water is not the most efficient way to hydrate the skin, itâs still important for the health of your cells. Avoid misting your skin with a hydrating spray during flight.
As the James River flows through one of the gorges in the Blue Ridge Mountains, it drops in the Balcony Falls and again in a 3-mile (5-km) series of rapids (a total drop of 84 feet [26 metres]) above Richmond, where the river has been impounded by the Boshers Dam.
Sign my guestbook while you're here. The James River Subdivision runs from Clifton Forge to Gladstone, on a water-level route parallel to the James River. The route crosses the river five times between Clifton Forge and Glasgow. To the east of Balcony Falls, the James River Sub enters the water gap in the Blue Ridge and then hugs the south side of the river to Lynchburg. At Lynchburg the line keeps to the riverfront.
