If you’ve never paddled the Nantahala before, or you are still familiarizing yourself with the river, this trip might be for you! We are waiting until Sunday, so participants can go to the Tuckaseegee or similar river on Saturday for a warm up. Participants should have ample class 2 experience and feel comfortable on rivers such as the Tuckaseegee, Hiwassee, Cartecay, Upper Hooch, or similar.

Please contact me at jaystorm@bellsouth.net or message me on Facebook if you are interested!

    We will meet at 10 AM at the Nantahala Put In. You will need a river pass. It can be purchased at the outfitter’s store for $5 for a year or $1 for a day. If you forget to purchase it ahead of time, we can get it during the shuttle. The Nantahala is a very COLD river, even in warm weather. Please dress for a temperature at least 10-20 degrees cooler than would be normal for you!
