That brings back lots of memories back when I was a fairly good boater in the 90s.

Yeah this place has been a classic forever

Ditto on that Mike. Some good memories. One not so good pin where I left my boat submerged and hiked up the worst part of the gorge in neoprene booties. Not fun. Lucky it flushed out and I found it the next day. Of course I blamed the POS Pyranna Mountain 300 and sold it promptly at WOR at Nantahala. Miss the hell out of it now that I'm 59.

@@NChillbilly LOl I remember one time when we were running shuttle, these two good old boys were having a fistfight by the side of the road. Another time a guy tried to portage Hydro and still got stuck in the hole when he tried to peel out of the eddy.

This is awesome I need to try kayaking what's a good starter boat?

That’s a very open ending answer if never been in a kayak there’s a ton of options

Get you and old Dagger RPM, easy to paddle and roll. It made rivers easy in my early days that I would struggle with in other boats. It's a classic and a dinosaur. I say this partly in jest because I don't even know if you could find one in this era of new boats. But I wish I had started in it way back in my day. I chose some poorly outfitted long high volume boats when so mostly creeked and it set me back in my progression. Find a roll class in a pool if you can find one and maybe you can meet some good folks willing to help you learn and try out a few boats. Join a paddling club. Good luck.
