Postby hacimsaalk » Sat Jan 08, 2005 11:58 pm

I would like to plan a whitewater rafting trip on the Gauley for next spring or fall. can anyone reccommend an outfitter? also the age limit must be 15 or under. or a trip on the cheat during the spring thaw.

thanks for the help

The Rivermen are who you want. They also have there own put in and camping area. I would recommend this for your older boys. It is really intense. class 4 and 5. You do 17 miles in the same time it takes to do 6 miles on the Yough so if you know the Yough you get my drift. We went down this fall with experienced raft guides from the yough. WIth a group of 20 all but two ended up in the River. To put it mildly "Rock and Roll"
