Posted: Tue Sep 16, 2014 2:11 pm
GAF trip update! Thursday, September 25: Arrive at Smoky Mountain Meadows CG. http://www.smokymtnmeadows.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Friday: Nantahala Falls laps.. All of the other rivers are off on Friday. This will help determine who is ready to head upstream on Saturday and Sunday. We will be running any lines we can come up with. This will not be your run of the mill Nantahala day.. There may be an option to run the French Broad if you can get a group together to go.
Saturday & Sunday: UPPER NANTY FEST! From Class V to III the Cascades and Upper section are steep and intense! (Most will stay on the III+ section) If enough people are there to run the lower, (II/III) have a blast. We will probably paddle the lower at the end of our upper runs.
Sunday night: head to AU. http://adventuresunlimited.net" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Monday and beyond: OCOEE MADNESS! You know it, you love it, you can't get enough of it!!! Time to hit the Ocoee! It's been over 2 years since I have had the chance at this awesome Class III+ play run. There you have it.
As always:
All participants in Arkansas Canoe Club trips do so as common adventurers. The club or its individual members may coordinate paddling trips but no one is considered leader of a trip. All participants take the responsibility for making their own decisions including, but not limited to, whether to participate on any particular water body or section, what equipment they use, the routes they may choose to paddle, whether their skill levels and abilities are appropriate for the activity or whether climate and water conditions are appropriate for their participation. In choosing to participate in any posted trip, I acknowledged that paddling, like many sports, has inherent dangers which can be minimized through education and experience, but cannot be totally eliminated I hereby, for myself, my heirs, executers, and administrators waive any and all rights and claims for damage I may have against the ACC, its officers and representatives for injuries suffered by me in ACC activities.
